Coalition govt will be safe for five years: Siddaramaiah
“Media making issue against me”
Bengaluru, June 29: Former chief minister and Coordination Committee chairman Siddaramaiah said that JDS-Congress coalition government led by HD Kumaraswamy would complete full five years safely.
Speaking to reporters after participating in a preparatory meeting on Common Minimum Programme at the KPCC office here on Friday, Siddaramaiah said that the Congress had joined hands with the JDS and formed the coalition government to keep communal BJP at bay and they have agreed to continue. So, the coalition government would not have any problem for the next five years, he said.
“When I was casually speaking to somebody at Dharmasthala nature care centre, someone has recorded it and disclosed it. Is it not unethical? The media does not know what did I say and for what purpose I have spoken. Even then, the media has attacked me with ulterior motive”, he regretted.
Deputy Chief Minister Dr G Parameshwar said that the draft copy of the Common Minimum Programme was discussed in detail and it would placed before the Coordination Committee. They have discussed about some other aspects in the draft and some suggestions were also evolved in the meeting, he said.
Medical Education Minister DK Shivakumar said that the all were equal for the coalition government. They would not worry about the criticisms of the opposition parties, he said.
Revenue Minister RV Deshpande said that as expected, Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy would present the budget. So, the Congress had discussed about the CMP. There was no difference between the leaders of two parties. Popular programmes given by the Siddaramaiah government would also be continued in this budget. There was nothing to suspect, he said.
Congress senior leader and former union minister Veerappa Moily was also present.
