Accusing Chief Minister HD Kumaraswam­y of indulging in 'third grade' politics, Karnataka BJP chief

B S Yeddyurapp­a Sunday said he was ready for any inquiry into an audio clip about his alleged bid to destabilis­e the coalition government in the state.

The audio tape war is set to play out in the assembly on Monday, with Yeddyurapp­a saying that his party would raise the matter about an audio tape in which Kumaraswam­y is heard purportedl­y discussing cash-forseat with supporters of an MLC seat aspirant, which had stirred a controvers­y in 2014.

"The Chief Minister is doing third grade politics. He is indulging in blackmail, conspiracy.

The Chief Minister had himself sent the MLA's son (Sharan Gouda) to the guest house whereI was staying at around 12:30 in the night and made him speak to me.

They have kept the part of discussion (in the tape) that they needed as record, leaving the rest," Yeddyurapp­a said.
