Bengaluru: BJP MP-JD(S) leaders meet - Rumours rife in political circles


Daijiworld Media Network - Bengaluru (MS)

Bengaluru, Jun 15: The meeting of H Vishwanath, who has resigned from the position of state president of JD(S) recently, with Chamarajanagar MP and BJP state vice-president V Srinivas Prasad has created curiosity among the political fraternity of the state.

It was heard before the expansion of the state cabinet that H Vishwanath will be offered the ministerial berth. But as only two independent MLAs were given positions and this subsequent meeting of Vishwanath with Srinivas Prasad are pointing towards the speculation that Vishwanath will probably join BJP.

It is learnt that former minister Yogeshwar was present during the meeting of Vishwanath with Srinivas Prasad. Speaking to reporters after the meeting Vishwanath said, "The friendship of me and Srinivas Prasad is a decade old one. We meet often. There is nothing special in this meeting. If I will join BJP, I will let everyone know. However, no such talks have taken place in this meeting. I am a JD(S) MLA."

"My resignation to the president post of state JD (S) is a closed chapter now. There is no question of me taking it back at any cost. I have immense respect for Deve Gowda and am confident that he will accept my resignation," added Vishwanath.

Meanwhile, Srinivas Prasad said, "Basically Vishwanath was in the Congress party. Siddaramaiah created problems for him. So he left Congress and joined JD(S). Siddaramaiah was responsible for my defeat also. It cannot be said right now that Vishwanath will join BJP. We have not discussed anything in that regard today. There are enough senior leaders in the BJP and we have to wait for their decision. I cannot guess and say whether the coalition government will survive or not. Yogeshwar is also trying to form BJP government. If the coalition government collapses due to its internal issues, BJP will not sit quiet. When the government itself is not stable what is the use of chief minister going for village stay?"

    If Mr.H Vishwanath joins BJP then he will be making a full circle. From Congress to JD(S) to BJP.

    Many central BJP leaders should understand the recent turncoats in the West Bengal. If the BJP Baktha's had seen film Omkara, where Kareena Kapoor was killed after her husband, played by Ajay Devgn, suspected her of wrongly cheating on him. Before killing Kareena, her husband was reminded of her father’s words, who had once told Ajay Devgn, “Jo ladki apne baap ko thug sakti hai, woh kisi aur ki sagi kya hogi (The girl who can betray her own father, how can she be trusted by anyone else).” This was because Kareena’s father had not approved of her relationship with a hardcore criminal, Omi Shukla, Ajay Devgn’s character in the film.

    The BJP thinks 'Operation Kamala' is the best survival which is own identity and integrity in question despite 10 Crores membership.

    If the dialogue of 'Omkara' is not taken as a warning these turncoat is surely one day will finish them within.
