DKS claims Cong wave started in state, leaders from BJP, JD(S) joining party


From Our Special Correspondent

Bengaluru, Dec 2: Even as the countdown for the elections to the 25 seats in the State Legislative Council on December 10 has started, Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee President on Thursday claimed that a strong pro-Congress wave has started in the State with leaders from BJP and JD(S) unconditionally joining the party.

Addressing a function at the State Congress office in Bengaluru on Thursday, the KPCC Chief said grama panchayat members and leaders from different districts were joining the party without any pre-conditions.

“There is no distinction in the party between the original members and newcomers in the party. All are equal in the party and all should work for strengthening the party without any reservations,’’ he said welcoming the new entrants.

Shivakumar said JD(S) leader C R Manohar, who was elected to the Council from the local bodies’ constituency from Kolar district, has resigned his seat to join the party and warmly welcomed Manohar, who has substantial followers in Kolar and Bengaluru Urban districts.

Another prominent leader, Malur Nagaraj, who joined the party from BJP, had served as Kolar district Congress president for 15 years, has returned to the Congress as he was disillusioned in the BJP, the State Congress Chief said.

Shivakumar said backward class leader Gopikrishna, who had narrowly lost in the Tarikere assembly constituency twice, and State JD(S) OBC unit president Amarnath, BJP leader Nanjappa, ex-Zilla Panchayat member from Malur Venkatesh, Mulbagal Zilla Panchayat member Shankarappa, Mandya Zilla Panchayat ex-member Venkatappa, Mandya Zilla Panchayat member Dr Krishna, HAL Trade Union leader Devaraj, Raju from Srirangapatna and several other prominent leaders from different districts were joining the party from BJP and JD(S).

The State KPCC Chief said the party will intensify its membership enrolment drive and activities after the Council polls on December 10 and the Belagavi session of State Legislature beginning on December 13 and requested all new entrants to become primary members of the party in their respective booths.

Congress opposition leader the State Assembly Siddaramaiah, senior party leader M Veerappa Moily, KPCC Working President B Ramalinga Reddy, former minister C Cheluvarayaswamy, H M Revanna, Krishna Byregowda and MLA Rizwan Arshad, Shivashankar Reddy and other Congress leaders were present.

    DKS is trying to deviate public mind from ' Mamatdis revenge tourism'. The Congress high command is not in a position to utter a word as they have got it deep in their right places. They have sheepishly acknowledged Mamtadi and Prashanth Kishores narrative that is backed with facts. The real wave in Ktaka is for the TMC, and Congress to merge with TMC before the public boot it out into oblivion.

    Karnataka was traditionally Congress - except for the blunder of Late Shri Rajiv Gandhi - unceremonious dismissal of then CM Shri - Veerendra Patil government in 1990 - This led to major shake- ups - JDS -- BJP rise etc etc - rest is history --

    Wish DKShi all the very best. It may be time to retrieve that Rs. 100Cr. cold storage that was set aside to vaccinate during the heights of second wave. Omicron has made its arrival in Karnataka. We very well know that you have another Rs. 100 Cr set aside for a massive statue. If situation escalates, can you also loudly announce that you will press that sundry funds also to service?

    Blind belief!!! None of the parties can deliver ache din. Citizens must understand their responsibilities and stop worshiping politicians. Instead of supporting their crimes and corruptions, citizens must question their representatives and make them accountable.

    DiKeShi is only good at giving these 'Brave' statements, in ground reality, CONgress is a spent force in state and it's in best interests that they merge with regional party as soon as possible. In the meanwhile, other 'leader' Siddu has disappeared from the scene!

    No wonder all fools are rushing to a sinking boat. Karnataka voters are known for their immaturity. They will always vote against the tide. If you look at history when North consigned Indira Gandhi to dust, Karnataka voted for Indira Gandhi.and that too after that horrible Emergency experience. Definately this corrupt and goondgiri politician can hope to be a future Chief minister of Karnataka

    🤣!! Now only such waves should cause ripples ! Honestly, it is not a case of deriding ! All know it ! Even Mamta after meeting Pawar, gave her piece of mind about Congress and it's ever young leader ! Politics is hard work 24x7, not part time she said. This basic the Congress leader does not know ! So whatever the party earns will come to a Naught ultimately ! High time for change... Or else all Gas !ನೀರಲ್ಲಿ ಮಾಡಿದ ಹೋಮ !
