Ruling out possibility of the JD(S) coming to power on its own in the next elections, former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah reiterated that the party was the “B-team of the BJP”.
Addressing Congress workers in Hassan after a protest march over the corruption issue on Sunday, he said former Chief Minister H.D.Kumaraswamy’s repeated claim that the JD(S) would win 123 seats in the next elections was impossible to achieve. “Can the JD(S) win so many seats? They don’t want any party to come to power with a full majority. They are expecting to win about 25 seats and with that number, they want to join hands with anybody to form the government”, he said.
