No BJP-JDS MLAs will join Congress, says MLC N. Ravikumar
Bengaluru: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Legislative Council member N. Ravikumar has dismissed speculation that BJP and Janata Dal (Secular) MLAs would switch to the Congress, calling it a baseless claim aimed at diverting attention from the ruling party's internal issues.
Speaking to reporters at the Vidhana Soudha on Tuesday, Ravikumar said, "Congress is spreading these rumors to cover up its misgovernance. They are daydreaming that BJP-JDS MLAs will join them. Instead of making such claims, Congress leaders should focus on ensuring stability within their own ranks."

Taking a dig at the ruling party, he pointed out alleged infighting between Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar. "The Congress should first resolve its internal power struggle for the CM’s chair and address the concerns of its own MLAs. Many of their legislators are unhappy with this government due to lack of funds for development projects. Let them focus on their issues before thinking about our MLAs," he remarked.
Ravikumar reiterated that the Congress was falsely claiming defections to cover up its internal conflicts. "There are no defections from BJP or JD(S). If any issues arise, our senior leaders will address them. No one is leaving the party," he asserted.
