Haveri:The Congress duo has joined hands,continuously opposing former Prime Minister Deve Gowda,who politically nurtured and made Siddaramaiah the Deputy Chief Minister.
The people of the state are saying that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is the true Shakuni,said former Chief Minister and Member of Parliament Basavaraj Bommai.
Responding to the accusations made against him by Siddaramaiah during the election campaign,Bommai, through a tweet,stated that Siddaramaiah has forgotten that when he left the JD(S), he survived by contesting the taluk and district panchayat elections under the banner of the Progressive Janata Dal, which Bommai supported.
Bommai reminded that he was the only leader from the Veerashaiva community who stood firmly and openly with Siddaramaiah when he advocated for the AHINDA (minority, backward classes, and Dalit) cause.
He further recalled how he assisted Siddaramaiah during the 2006 Chamundeshwari by-election after Siddaramaiah resigned from the JD(S).
