There will be political ups & downs after LS poll results: BSY


Team Udayavani, May 6, 2019, 6:47 PM IST

Bengaluru: Indicating that the stability of the ruling coalition in Karnataka depended on the stand taken by disgruntled Congress legislators, state BJP chief B S Yeddyurappa said on Monday there will be “political ups and downs” after the general election results are declared on May 23.

He ruled out any possibility of his party’s alliance with the JD(S) if such a situation were to arise. The former chief minister, however, said that those in BJP were not “political sanyasis.”

Yeddyurappa said it was too early to speak about the stability of the state government.

“I want to say one thing clearly: Kumaraswamy had betrayed me after deciding to share power 20 months each (in 2006). There is no question of coming to an understanding with JD(S). There is no question of a coalition government (with that party),” Yeddyurappa said.

Speaking to reporters in Kalaburagi, he claimed more than 20 Congress legislators were feeling disgruntled. Let’s wait and see what decision they will take, he said.

“It’s too early to say anything… I have never said the government will collapse and I shouldn’t say it also. What I’m saying is there will be political ups and downs after May 23 results, anything may happen. I’m not saying we will form the government or we will come to power,” he added.

Pointing out that there is a “lot of confusion” in the state politics, Yeddyurappa said it is certain that Narendra Modi will become the prime minister of the country once again, and the results of Lok Sabha polls will have an implication on the politics here.

Yeddyurappa also said the party high command will decide on the next state unit president, and he would continue as the leader of the opposition.
