With tears in his eyes,Karnataka Chief Minister B S Yeddyurappa blamed the dissidents for shifting focus from relief work to politics as dissident Reddy brothers held out despite a reported compromise formula.
“I apologise to the flood victims. When they are facing so many problems,we should not have wasted time on this crisis,” he told Kannada channel “Suvarna”.
He said the people he trusted did not support him. “I should have not been distracted. I hope God will forgive me,” the Chief Minister said.
