A huge misfortune for the BJP, as the former Union Minister and Chief Minister of Karnataka, S M Krishna, who joined the BJP a year ago, is probably going to come back to Congress, as indicated by sources.
KPCC President Dr G Parameshwar and minister D K Shiva Kumar have effectively held first round of talks with the veteran leader. The issue has been likewise conveyed to the notice of state in-charge K C Venugopal and Congress president Rahul Gandhi. The Congress High Command too has given green flag to welcome Krishna back.
The senior leader is purportedly angry with the BJP for denying any position in the party and is probably going to change the party. Krishna was expecting a ticket for his daughter from RR Nagar or Maddur constituency. After his meeting with the Congress, he has requested that his supporters take a free choice amid elections.
It is learnt that the supporters of Krishna likewise met Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. In the event that Krishna rejoins the Congress it would be a spirit sponsor for the Congress and a tremendous loss for the BJP the upcoming polls.
Krishna was most recently seen with the BJP leaders in ‘Parivarthana Yatre’. He was not found in any of BJP campaigns after that.
