Bengaluru: Reacting to CP Yogeshwar’s statement calling JD(S) a joker party, JD(S) MLA SR Mahesh mocked Yogeshwar by saying that he became a Legislative Council member and a minister on the strength of CDs and photographs.

“In the gram panchayat elections in Channapatna, candidates backed by ‘all party member’ CP Yogeshwar lost very badly. JD(S) won 80% of the seats. Day by day Yogeshwar is losing Channapatna and the pain of losing it has made him delusional,” Mahesh said.

“Chakkere in Channapatna is his birthplace. Any leader will at least be respected in his birthplace. However, not Yogeshwar. JD(S) won in Chakkere village. This pain may be haunting him,” Mahesh further said.

“If this is the case, will the promise by Yogeshwar to completely expel HD Kumaraswamy from Channapatna ever be realised? Now that he has become a minister, he must at least do his duty diligently,” the MLA said.
