Gowda backed out support to BJP with vision. Not only Lingayits and Brahmins in Karnataka who will decide next govt but Vokkaliga's,Muslims, Dalits and Other minority people will support Gowda and this is a fact. If he had given support to BJP then JDS could have forget minority votes. Now in future election JDS will get 70% Vokkaliga's, 90% Muslims and 65% of other minority votes thereby atleast 65 MLA's will be from JDS. You can't imagine JDS without Gowda. We are seeing struggle of Siddaramaiah in Congress.When he was in JDS he was like king, Same thing applies to all other JDS leaders who left JDS like P.G.R Sindya,B.L Shankar etc., Devegowda will be again King Maker.
