Former Chief Minister and Janata Dal (Secular) leader HD Kumaraswamy has criticized the Congress party, accusing some members of making inappropriate statements against his own party. Kumaraswamy states that his promise to dissolve JD(S) party was based on the implementation of the Pancharatna promises in this election season, and not upon losing the assembly elections. Furthermore, he expressed his disappointment by some half-baked ministers making such inappropriate claims. The recently concluded assembly elections in Karnataka saw Congress winning 135 seats and BJP getting 66 seats, whereas JD(S) only managed to secure 19 seats. Kumaraswamy’s tweets refer to the issue of implementing his election promises, and he seems to be frustrated that he feels people may not be aware of the rule’s implementation process.
Janata Dal (Secular) or JD(S) is a political party in India that was formed in 1999 by the merger of the Janata Party, Karnataka Congress Party, and the breakaway faction of the Karnataka unit of the Communist Party of India (Marxist). The party chiefly represents south India and its leaders have often held important positions in the government.
HD Kumaraswamy is an Indian politician who served as the Chief Minister of Karnataka twice. He is the son of the former Prime Minister of India H D Deve Gowda, who is the founder of the Janata Dal (Secular) party. Kumaraswamy is a member of the 17th Lok Sabha representing the Bangalore Rural constituency. He has also been involved in producing and acting in Kannada cinema.
