<p>BJP which had failed to secure a clear mandate in the elections has been trying all diabolical games for past six months to destabilise the coalition government in the state, former chief minister and state coalition government coordination committee chairman Siddaramaiah said on Wednesday.</p>.<p class="bodytext">Siddaramaiah, who arrived at Kadur told reporters at the helipad on KLK ground in Birur, that the 77-year-old BJP state president Yeddyurappa’s single point agenda was to come to power.</p>.<p class="bodytext">“In a bid to achieve the goal he has been playing nauseating political games. He is now indulging in horse-trading by hijacking some MLAs to Haryana”, he ridiculed.</p>.<p class="bodytext">Yeddyurappa has been frequently claiming before the media that the BJP will be forming a government in the state, he added.</p>.<p class="bodytext">MLAs had been lured with crores of rupees.
