Amid speculation of a possible alliance between the Bharatiya Janata Party and the Janata Dal (Secular) ahead of the Lok Sabha polls, former Chief Ministers H.D. Kumaraswamy and Basavaraj Bommai on Friday held a joint press conference at the JD(S) Legislature Party office to announce that they will put up a united fight against the Congress government in the State.
“We are both Opposition parties and have decided to fight together in the interest of the State,” said Mr. Kumaraswamy.
In their first joint demand, the two leaders said that the government should take over the Bengaluru-Mysuru Infrastructure Corridor project of the Nandi Infrastructure Corridor Enterprises (NICE).
