He was the first voice opposition to Kumaraswamy in the meeting asked the party to honour the commitment they had made to BJP. When every body was bitching to save power when President's rule was impossed, he walked out of dirty politics and came out of JDS. I'm really impressed with his values/moral. I hope this electronics engineer by training will make a clean politician in future like Hegde.

Now he is poaching to congress. I hope Karnataka%u2019s public would poach him & his party during election. How is he greedy? His past record has been displayed in TIMESNOW Channel that how he became PM & opportunists? No shy for DEVE? If congress supports or take supports that would be very dark/black for Indian democratic process as alike this personality is surviving?

All this astrology stuff is bogus. Our friend Yeddyurappa also consulted several astrologers. See what happened to him! Mdm Sonia Gandhi never consults astrologers and she is ruling the country wisely and well.
Did you know that there is a system in our constitution, as per the 1969 act, in section "49-O" that a person can go to the polling booth, confirm his identity, get his finger marked and convey the presiding election officer that he doesn't want to vote anyone!
Yes such a feature is available, but obviously these seemingly notorious leaders have never disclosed it. This is called "49-O".
Why should you go and say "I VOTE NOBODY"... because, in a ward, if a candidate wins, say by 123 votes, and that particular ward has received "49-O" votes more than 123, then that polling will be cancelled and will have to be re-polled. Not only that, but the candidature of the contestants will be removed and they cannot contest the re-polling, since people had already expressed their decision on them. This would bring fear into parties and hence look for genuine candidates for their parties for election. This would change the way, of our whole political system... it is seemingly surprising why the election commission has not revealed such a feature to the public....
Please spread this news to as many as you know... Seems to be a wonderful weapon against corrupt parties in India... show your power, expressing your desire not to vote for anybody, is even more powerful than voting... so don't miss your chance. So either vote, or vote not to vote (vote 49-O) and pass this info on...
This is expected! When These two Parties are drop their original Policies for sharing and taste the Power; this kind of froudness can take place. the Karnataka People can and should give there mandate through the fresh Election. Thuyavan.V, Tiruppur,
These politicians are really shameless... They do anything for power... When kumarswamy stepped down from CM post he alleged the BJP's were communal and all nonsense... He came back again with the same people(Shameless they take back their word in a week)...Now he is again taken back his words less than a week... Some people in name of politics and doing good to people are spoiling the reputation of state, country.... Behave atleast infront of people..... Dont forget you are supposed to answer the people..... sometime atleast.... politicians @least answer questions in this site
D Gowdaji is not acting like an ex-Prime minister but like a typical street politician. we all know how he became P.M. Laloo in a meeting 1996 told the coalition parties kissi gaddhe ya goda go bitta do . The coalition immeditely took goda as gowda and thus we had Deve Gowda as the P.M. Since then after he lost the prime ministership and can only pity him. DGowda and sons owning crores and crores of property are still not satisfied. And want to grab as much as possible berofe relinquishing power As an ex-prime minister, he is expected to air his comments on international and national issues. On the contrary most of the time his concern seems to be real estate in and around Bangalore, so much so that he crusaded the exit of eminent people from important agencies. The people of Karnataka lost the services of Mr Jayakar Jerome soon after Mr Deve Gowda formed the government with Congress and then Narayana Murthy, kene%u2026.
The way Karnataka has witnessed its turn-coat politicians of various hues behave, having nothing but their own words to eat for their break fast, lunch and dinner, makes for a sad and sickening contempt for the political class as a whole. And it is a disgrace that a former PM is playing petty politics to ensure his son%u2019s stint as the CM The Gowda family takes the cake for it followed not far away from the other main political parties who are all treating the state as their own fiefdom.
