Kumaraswamy backs K'taka's effort to boost its industry

The New Indian Express Hubballi

January 23, 2025

JDS Core Committee Chairman and MLA GT Devegowda on Wednesday said that party state president HD Kumaraswamy decides on what he thinks and does not go by the opinion of legislators.

- EXPRESS NEWS SERVICE @Benga Iuru

He said Kumaraswamy has sought the opinion of the 19 JDS MLAs on choosing the party state president, but ultimately will decide on his own, without respecting the legislators' thoughts.

Devegowda told media persons here that he is not aware of the developments to appoint a new state president, but wished Youth JDS leader Nikhil Kumaraswamy gets the top post.

Asked whether he is ready to take the responsibility, he sarcastically said, "When I am not able to take the 19 JDS MLAs along, how will I be able to head the party organisation?"

Devegowda said he has informed party leaders about his decision to keep away from the party organisation work for the next six months as he is busy with the development of his constituency, and taking care of his family. He said that one should have the guts to suspend or expel him from the party as he is from the grassroots and has organised the party that has made people elect him repeatedly in elections.
