Karnataka HR Bhardwaj on Tuesday said he was ready to give the Bharatiya Janata Party as much time as it needs to elect a new leader.
"Let them take their time. I will not interfere or else all you people in the media will blame and target me for forming or pulling down a government," the Governor told media persons.
"As far as the sanction for prosecution from my end is concerned, I have the report of the Lokayukta with me. However, he has not given me the entire report as yet. Whatever I have been saying about illegal mining has been proven right as per the Lokayukta's report," he said.
