Bengaluru / Hubballi: While only four days were left for the election to the 25th seat of the Legislative Council, alliance talks between BJP and the powerful opposition JD (s) continued to graze fire with the leaders of both parties waiting for the first step.
Former CM BS Yediyurappa is the first to announce that BJP will seek jd support in the chair where the latter does not fight.
While BJP is fighting with 20 seats, JD (s) will only be six.
The meeting between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and JD (S) Supremo HD Deve Gowda last week in Delhi was also being seen in this background.
But since then, there is no advanced movement seen.
Even though Yediyurappa has spoken with the leader JD (s) HD Kumaraswamy who is looking for his party’s support, which was last interested in the official demand from the Main Minister of Basavaraj Bommai or BJP President Nalin Kumar Kateel.
“Only Yediyurappa requested our support.
There are no other leaders from BJP who approach us.
How can you expect us to announce our support,” said Kumarswamy while replying to the question of delay in the BJP broaching alliance.
However, both Bommai and Kateel did not respond to Kumaraswamy’s statement.
“We have conveyed our views and now for Kumaraswamy to make a party stand clear,” said Bommai.
It was said that the division at BJP for this problem was the reason behind the party that did not make an official request.
“Most leaders are not interested in all types of understanding with JD (s) because they will send the wrong signal to voters,” said a person in BJP.
Kumaraswamy who was supposed to make his stand clear on Monday, said he would receive a call on Tuesday.
