The ruling Congress too joined the protestors and shouted slogans against the Union Home Minister.
Hassan: Shivalinge Gowda, JD(S) legislator from Arsikere, will join the Congress, as decided by his supporters in a meeting on Wednesday night.
Gowda had been distancing himself from the JD(S) in recent times. He had also clarified about a fortnight ago that his supporters’ decision would be ultimate.
A meeting of the supporters was held at Gowda’s residence in Arsikere on Wednesday night, in order to decide on the matter prior to Congress leader Siddaramaiah’s arrival in Guttinagere village, Arsikere taluk, on March 5, for the unveiling of a statue of Sangolli Rayanna.
The followers of the MLA expressed their support to Gowda joining the Congress by turning on the torch in their respective cell phones during the meeting at night time.
