Bangalore, Dec 26 (UNI) Karnataka Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy today said that the ruling coalition had no intention to defer the elections to the Local bodies in the state.
Speaking to newspersons after participating in the review meeting of the works relating to disability issues in all the departments convened by the National Human Rights Commission here today, he said elections to the civic bodies would be held once the process of reservations of the wards was completed. He termed the allegations made to this effect by the Congress as false.
Welcoming the decision of the JD(S) national council to revoke the suspension of 39 party legislators, including them, Mr Kumaraswamy said the party's national leadership was convinced that whatever action the legislators had taken earlier was only to save the party.
Mr Kumaraswamy also claimed that majority of the legislators, MPs and Patty's National Council members, who participated at the National Council meeting held at New Delhi, expressed their support to former Prime Minister H D Deve Gowda. He said that there was no need to attach importance to rival faction leaders including former minister P G R Sindhia who have claimed that they represent real JD(S).
He said that during his Delhi visit he had also met senior BJP leaders including former prime minister Atal Behari Vajapayee and others and briefed them about the developmental works being initiated in Karnataka by the JD(S)-BJP combine government. The BJP national leadership had expressed satisfaction and extended cooperation for the alliance government, he said.
