Speculation was rife in politicial circles after former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah was visibly irked by the remarks made by former MLA Vasu at the time of lighting of the lamp at a party function at the Congress office in Mysuru on Sunday.
M.r Siddaramaiah was seen and also heard publicly reprimanding Mr. Vasu, a former MLA representing Chamaraja Assembly constituency in Mysuru, over his remarks when the leaders were alighting from the dais and making their way to their seats after lighting the traditional lamp.
It was apparently certain remarks made by Mr. Vasu on social justice that irritated Mr. Siddaramaiah. Mr. Vasu’s efforts to placate him by claiming that he would convince him about his intentions further infuriated the former Chief Minister, who was also seen sharing his displeasure with other leaders including Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) working president R. Dhruvanarayan and former Minister H.C. Mahadevappa.
