The number of seats BJP-JD(S) alliance will win in Karnataka in the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections will not cross single digits, claimed Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) spokesperson M. Lakshmana.
Addressing a press conference in Mysuru on Sunday, Mr. Lakshmana mocked the claims of the BJP leaders that the alliance partners will sweep all 28 seats in the State. “The alliance will not cross single digits in Karnataka. You can mark my words,” the Congress leader said.
The Congress party will not make any grandiose claims like winning all the 28 seats. “But, we will cross 20 seats. Our target is to reach 20 to 22 seats,” he said.
