I am from bangalore, I am not a kannadiga, but am living here for almost 10yrs. to begin, Bangalore is a nice place.Generally people here are very warm and nice. I have never seen the politics here as hot as the other states in India. Generally here people doesn't bother much, Just work and Enjoy. as far as BJP, JD(s) and Cong all are bad like other states in india. But one thing we must accept, there was decent of development work happened during SM Krishna regime, he is not great, but compared to all other people, he is good.at present jd(s) looted the state - mindblowing scams...CM's KID owns harleydavidson and soo many cars - which includes Hummer also :) just imagine....these people call themselves as "Farmers' Son" .....now kumaraswamy started talking how to trust BJP...they are communal and all......like father i guess he also slept for 20months and now suddenly realised BJP is bad ......and one heart reakng example....Karnataka is rich in Iron ore especially sandur and bellary lot of minning activity happens. I had a chance to visit those places part of my official trip....if u want to see a place without any basic facilities and infrastructure, u must visit that place.....people live like slaves.....one example....outside JD(s) and BJP is fighting rite, in the mining belt - most of the BJP and JD(S) mlas and MPs are own brothers and they all same family....its all money, I was shocked to see that place.bangalore and sandur, bellary all are part of karanat

The views expressed by you are absolutely right. I have been following the state politics from 1980, when Devraj Urs was the Chief Minister. He was pulled down and Gundu Rao has taken over. After that Rama Krishna Hegde single handedly fougfht the elections and defeated the corrupt congress. From the day Rama Krishna Hedge, Deva Gowda has been plotting to dethrone him and usurp the power.
Deva Gowda had played many political games and mischeif to remove Rama Krishna Hegde. Deva Gowda and his family is only interested in amassing the wealth through corrupt means. He will go to any extent to retain power and amass wealth - if required he will join hands with Pakistani and Bangladesh terrorists.
In 1996 through manipulative politics - Communist Party has imposed Deva Gowda as PM of India. During his term of 9 months, did he do any single good thing which has benifited common man. No. He was sleeping and amass wealth for his next 100 generations.
Now he talks about saffron party, then why did he agreed to form government 20 months ago? Is he insane or blind for the last 20 months. It will not be a surprise if Congress party supports Deva Gowda party to continue the minority government. Deva Gowda is a shame less buffoon and he will join hands wityh anyone for power.
It is high time common man give a fitting reply to these crooks in the next election.
Only a person who strives for the growth and development of the State and Nation should be elected as leaders.

I accept to ur comments and I am born and bought-up in Karnataka. But u r wrong wrt SM krishna. It was JH patel who started the development works and krishna had the courage to finish it. Thats it. But credit goes to both though more to JH patel govt before SM krishna. Anyways, these days its highly untolerable politics. None of the party are good but considering the agreement and ethics logic, jds must have transferred power onto BJP. BJP largest single party that won the election. jds again teaming up with congress will be calling upon their end in Karnataka. We dont want another election and burden our own State finance reserves. jds will pay heavily for this, I bet on this. Anyways, I am sure they have a alternative.
Krishna was more urbane and sophisticated. But at a fundamental level he did nothing for Karnataka. took good care of himself and is famliy. Congress has always exploited Karnataka - let us remember indira gandhi - Chikmagalur and sonia gandi - bellary.
