The BJP is likely to meet the demand of the Janata Dal (Secular) for three parliamentary seats in the Old Mysore region while discussion is on for another seat.
The seat-sharing discussion among the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) partners on Thursday took place at a meeting between the former Chief Minister and JD(S) leader H.D. Kumaraswamy and Union Home Minister Amit Shah in Delhi.
While Mr. Kumaraswamy refused to divulge details of the discussions, JD(S) sources said the BJP had agreed to share Hassan, Mandya, and Kolar Lok Sabha seats while the decision on Tumakuru, Bengaluru Rural, and Chickballapur seats would be taken next week. “The JD(S) is likely to get one of these three seats,” sources said.
