Bureaucracy has been 'infiltrated': Former Karnataka CM HD Kumaraswamy claims secret agenda

Even before the dust could settle down from Siddaramaiah's remarks on RSS calling the organization as Taliban and Hitler's family, former Karnataka HD Kumaraswamy has courted controversy by making a statement against RSS now.
Speaking at the party organization meeting at his farmhouse in Bengaluru outskirts, the ex-CM said, RSS is infiltrating its cadres into bureaucracy.

He said that as per his knowledge 4,000 civil servants like IAS and IPS have affiliation with the RSS and in 2016 alone, 676 made it into the system.

Kumaraswamy also questioned why BJP's tallest leader Vajpayee was given a forceful retirement in 2014 and also said that the same treatment was meted out to another senior BJP leader Murali Manohar Joshi.

Kumaraswamy said that it is RSS's agenda to divert the nation in the path of 'manu smriti' times which according to secularists and left-wing activists is a system created by upper-caste to dominate the lower strata.

Kumaraswamy's statements come at a time when bypolls to two Assembly segments Sindagi and Hangal on October 30 will be held. It is said that JDS is now making attempts to woo back the minorities and other backward sections who distanced from JDS following its support to BJP in 2006.

Last week Siddaramaiah called RSS and BJP as Taliban and also compared the organization with the Hitler's family.

Following the statement, BJP leaders in unison launched a scathing attack on Siddaramaiah and Nalin Kumar Kateel called Siddaramaiah a terrorist.
