Mumbai, May 21: Actor-turned-politician Shatrughan Sinha, the rebel BJP lawmaker from Bihar, slammed his party leaders for the "embarrassment in Karnataka.

On the other hand, he accused the BJP of losing "moral standing" after attempting to form the government despite lacking the numbers.

Kumaraswamy has proven himself - that he’ll be King & not the King Maker! What a way to become King! Despite all objections, opposition & road blocks by King Kong & team. Congrats @hd_kumaraswamy & also @ghulamnazad & team for moving with electrifying speed to seal the deal..1>2

On the other end taking the jibe against BJP,  Sinha slammed party state senior leaders. He alleged that those who misled PM particularly must be held responsible and should be shown the exit door.

“Resounding embarrassment and loss of moral standing/face for our leadership. All those who misled Hon'ble PM, particularly those who declared victory in his presence, must be held responsible and shown the door.“

Karnataka shows there is still some morality left in politics but alas not in the BJP. Now the governor should also resign.
