Bengaluru: Former Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister Dr G Parameshwar said that the president of the party is supreme and leaders must follow the guidelines and suggestions given by him.

Parameshwar was the long-time president of the Karnataka Congress for eight years and his comments came after Raghavendra Hitnal, Congress MLA from Koppal, backed party legislator Zameer Ahmad’s demand to project Siddaramaiah as Congress chief ministerial candidate in the next Assembly polls.

Addressing presspersons Parameshwar said, “As for as Congress is concerned, state party president is supreme, whether DK Shivakumar, Dinesh Gundu Rao or me, whatever the business it could be, the president will be supreme in our party.”

“Whatever DK Shivakumar says that’s the opinion of the party. Whatever he says, it comes with the high command’s permission. The party high command has given permission to him, there is no groupism in Congress till today. If some issues are raised, party high command will clear them. Whether it’s Zameer Ahmed or anybody else in the party, they must follow the instructions of state party president,” said the former DCM.

He further said the party’s leaders should focus on fighting against the failure of the present BJP-led state government and bringing back Congress to power in the state.

“Siddaramaiah has already said it’s Zameer Ahmad’s personal opinion. In politics, we will have followers. They will speak up over what they feel and what they wanted us to be. That is their opinion. Even my followers want me to be CM. What our leaders must need to do is to fight against failure of the present government, fight against BJP and bringing back Congress government to power,” said Parameshwar.
