Coalition government might not complete five years, mid-term polls are imminent: HD Deve Gowda
Bengaluru: Former Prime Minister and JD(S) supremo HD Devegowda on Friday claimed that mid-term polls in the state was imminent as the differences between the coalition partners Congress and JD(s) are growing.
Devegowda blamed the Congress for the differences and added that the grand old party had promised to support his party for five years but their behavior is changed now.
“Our people are smart, they are observing the behavior of Congress. Their behavior is not in line with their promise” Devegowda said.
Devegowda’s statement come in the wake of media reports suggesting that former and co-ordination committee chairman Siddaramaiah has sought his party high command to withdraw support from Kumaraswamy government as it is denting the image of party in the state.
He further assured that the JD(S) will not pose any threat to the coalition and it is in the hands of Congress to see the government run through.
