MLC election: JD(S) has no poll pact with BJP
The Hindu
Workers and supporters told to decide depending on situation at local level
Setting to rest speculation about a poll pact between Janata Dal (Secular) and BJP in the December 10 polls to 25 seats in the Karnataka Legislative Council , former Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy said that the party has allowed local leaders to decide whom they will vote for in constituencies where JD(S) is not contesting.
Clarifying that the two parties had not entered into a pact, the JD(S) leader told reporters in Bengaluru on December 7 that party members could decide depending on the ground situation. Since the party is fighting both Congress and BJP, local leaders have been allowed to decide.
