Mysore/Mysuru: K.R. Nagar JD(S) MLA S.R. Mahesh has asserted that no party will be able to form Government without JD(S) support after the 2023 Assembly polls.
He was addressing JD(S) leaders, people’s representatives and workers at the Party Office on Seshadri Iyer road here yesterday ahead of the party’s convention at Bengaluru’s Palace Grounds on Feb.14.
Explaining the plight that H.D. Kumaraswamy was in when he (HDK) headed the JD (S)-Congress coalition Government, Mahesh said it is regretful to note that many party leaders, unknowing of the situation, were of the opinion that Kumaraswamy did little for them during the rule of the coalition Government.
Reiterating that no party can form the Government in 2023 without JD(S) support, he said that workers were the backbone of the party. Without taking the name of the party’s Chamundeshwari MLA G.T. Devegowda, who of late has been staying away from party matters, Mahesh said that it is left to the MLA to take his own political course.
Maintaining that no leader is above the party, Mahesh said that the party will move on with the strength of its workers.
He asked the party leaders to bring all elected representatives and other office-bearers for tomorrow’s (Feb.14) convention at Bengaluru. City JD(S) President K.T. Cheluvegowda, former Mayors R. Lingappa and M.J. Ravikumar, former Corporator K.V. Mallesh, party leaders N.R. Ravichandregowda, Madegowda, V. Shailendra, R. Mudduraj, Syed Rahmatullah, Corporators Prema Shankaregowda, SBM Manju and Bhagya Mahadesh and others were present.
