In a startling turn of events, the Janata Dal (Secular) state president C.M. Ibrahim has unequivocally rejected former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda's decision to form an alliance with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections. Ibrahim, who refers to his faction as the "original JDS," declared that his group, committed to secularism, would not align with the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA).

This bold move by Ibrahim has raised concerns about a potential rift within the JDS, as he openly criticised Deve Gowda's alliance plans. Speaking to reporters following a brainstorming session with some party leaders, Ibrahim said, "Our first decision is not to go with the NDA. Our second resolution is to appeal to Deve Gowda not to agree to this alliance." He further stressed the departures of JDS leaders in neighbouring states, such as Kerala, Maharashtra, and Tamil Nadu, following the BJP-JDS pact.
