Alleged audio clip of BJP-affiliated Janardhan Reddy bribing Congress lawmakers emerges

The Congress on Friday released an audio tape that the party claims, shows the BJP trying to lure its legislators to support Chief Minister Yeddyurappa in the Karnataka assembly, just a day before the latter faces the Supreme Court-ordered floor test in the Karnataka assembly.
 

Congress has claimed that in the audio clip, Janardhan Reddy, the scam-tainted mining baron linked to the BJP, was heard offering money and posts to Congress legislator from Raichur Rural seat for his support during the test of strength in the assembly.

Meanwhile, BJP retorted with a tweet that read, "Dear Congressis, Who is the mimicry artist you hired to perform Janardhan Reddy's voice? He has done a pretty good job. Kindly share his coordinates. We would want to know if he can do a voiceover of Siddu & DKS as well. May be even we can release an audio tape! Thanks :)."
 

Dear Congressis,

Who is the mimicry artist you hired to perform Janardhan Reddy's voice? He has done a pretty good job.

Kindly share his coordinates. We would want to know if he can do a voiceover of Siddu & DKS as well. May be even we can release an audio tape!

Thanks :)
