Bengaluru: “We will not bargain for any posts”, said H D Deve Gowda on Tuesday September 1, finally coming to a decision to give his party’s “unconditional support” to the Congress.

GowdaAfter the entire saga rounding the Bruhat Bangalore Mahanagara Palike elections the JD(S) ruled H D Deve Gowda came up with this decision.

Addressing a press conference, Gowda said, “We have neither set any conditions nor bargained for anything during our negotiations.”

Ruling out the possibility of the party supporting the BJP, he said, “There is a need to protect the existence of the JD(S) and all decisions are taken in keeping with this line.”

Declaring that he was not going to compromise on the “ideals of the party”, he said, “People from the minorities, dalits and OBCs are among our 14 corporators.”

Referring to his meeting with BJP leader and Union Law Minister D V Sadananda Gowda last week, he said, “He sought our support, but I have not committed anything to him.”

He said Sadananda Gowda might not have got the party’s approval to broach an alliance with the JD(S).
