Former Minister and veteran BJP leader K.S. Eshwarappa said the BJP-JD (S) alliance for Lok Sabha polls will not be extended to the elections to the Legislative Council.
Speaking to reporters in Mysuru after holding talks with aspirants for elections to Legislative Council from South Teachers’ constituency and party leaders of the four districts of Mysuru, Mandya, Chamarajanagar, and Hassan over the last two days, Mr Eshwarappa sought to make it clear that the BJP will not have any understanding with JD (S) for Legislative Council elections.
“I believe it will be restricted to Lok Sabha elections,” Mr. Eshwarappa said. However, he said the party men will abide by whatever decision the party’s central leadership takes in the regard.
