JD(S) is a ship which has declared distress....wont be surprised if within 6 months there is a split in JD(S) and every one joins BJP....what is left in that party..now deve gowda wont be able to hold its MLA's......Merajuddin Patel, your resigning or holding the post does not make any difference to anyone.....dont expect gowdas to call you to take back the papers
