Bengaluru: Former Chief Minister and JDS leader HD Kumaraswamy broke his party's silence on aligning with the BJP, asserting that their condition isn't desperate enough to join hands with the BJP.

Addressing the media at JP Bhavan in Sheshadripuram, Bengaluru, on Saturday, Kumaraswamy clarified that while his party sometimes cooperates with the BJP in the Assembly to oppose the government in power, they are not in a position to beg for support from anyone.

Taking a neutral stance on his alignment, Kumaraswamy stated that he is not willing to go to anyone's house seeking alliances. He criticized both the Congress and the BJP, accusing them of betraying the state. He emphasized that he has always been vocal about issues and is not one to shy away from the truth.

Kumaraswamy questioned the Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar's delay in releasing 710 crores and pointed out that the pending bills of BBMP contractors have been held back. He called on them to reveal the reasons behind these actions to the public.

He accused the engineer of demanding a bribe of 15% to facilitate further progress in matters.

Kumaraswamy criticized the Congress-led government for what he perceives as corruption and malpractices, vowing to fearlessly fight against them with substantial evidence and documents to support his claims.
