He also apologised to the flood victims saying he had been distracted from concentrating on rehabilitating flood victims in the state because of dissidence.

"For my selfish ends, I was forced to ditch those who were my trusted people. Be it Shobha or Baligar.

Even God will not forgive me for this," he told Kannada channel "Suvarna".

Under pressure from the brothers, the Chief Minister on Friday transferred his Principal Secretary P V Baligar to another department and is said to have promised to sack Rural Development Minister Shobha Karandlaje, from the Cabinet.
