“The BJP will form the government in Karnataka soon,” party MLA Ramesh Jarkiholi said in Belagavi district on Saturday.
“There is a lot of infighting in the Karnataka Congress. Ministers and legislators belong to different factions. They are all waiting to bring the Siddaramaiah government down. It will happen soon. And, when it happens, the BJP will form a new government,” he said at a party campaign meeting in Hindalga.
The Congress-Janata Dal(S) alliance government fell and the BJP formed a new government led by B.S. Yediyurappa after some legislators from various parties defected to the BJP in 2019. Mr. Jarkiholi was one of them who resigned from the Congress and joined the BJP. He also claimed that he orchestrated the resignations then.
