Puducherry Chief Minister V Narayanasamy today slammed the Karnataka Governor's invite to BJP Legislature Party Leader B S Yeddyurappa to form the government, saying the state now "witnesses murder of democracy".

The senior Congress leader said Governor Vajubhai Vala's action was not correct particularly when the Congress-JDS combine had the numerical strength required to form the government.

"Karnataka now witnesses murder of democracy," he told PTI.

"It is not a correct step particularly when the Congress Janata Dal (Secular) combine has very strong numerical strength," he added.

Vala asked Yeddyurappa to seek a vote of confidence within 15 days of assuming office as the chief minister.
