Bengaluru, Feb 24 (IBNS): BJP Yuva Morcha on Friday staged demonstration demanding resignation of Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah for his alleged payoff to Congress high command, media reported.

Late on Thursday, BJP spokesperson and MLA, S Suresh Kumar, during a press conference, alleged that a 'diary' belonging to Congress MLC Govindaraju, said to be a close to the state chief minister, has provided details of payoffs by state Congress members to their national leaders.

He demanded that the CM must resign on 'moral grounds'.

The 'diary' was apparently among the documents seized when the Income Tax Department raided three MLCs in March 2016, media reported.
