Bengaluru. Karnataka BJP MLA Munirathna on Saturday claimed that Deputy CM D.K. Shivkumar is ready to join BJP along with 40 Congress MLAs. He said that Shivkumar is desperate to join BJP and if the party opens the door for him, he will rush to join the party.
He said, BJP knows this very well, but the party will still not open the doors for Shivkumar. MLA Muniratna said, “Shivkumar is claiming on one hand that he is getting BJP leaders to join the Congress party. But, what is surprising is that he himself wants to join our party (BJP) along with his supporters.”
Muniratna said that there is a demand to create four more posts of Deputy CM in the government. In such a situation, Shivkumar thinks that it is better for him to join BJP than staying in Congress. MLA Munirathna said, “We will not open our doors for him, let him remain in Congress.”
