Even as Janata Dal (Secular) is trying to woo Muslims in poll-bound Karnataka, its state president H D Kumaraswamy, who had once formed a coalition government with the BJP, has declared that he would not join hands with the saffron party in future.

Replaying to queries of media persons in Bengaluru, the former chief minister said that his party would opt for a “democratic and secular party which respects the Constitution” if compelled to form a coalition post the 2018 Assembly polls in Karnataka.

While not directly naming Congress as the party that he would choose over the BJP, he said in an interview with The Hindu that the saffron party’s “aggressive Hindutva agenda was dividing society, which is essentially its character.”

It could be recalled here that Mr Kumaraswamy has stated earlier this year that the biggest enemy of JD(S) was Congress and not BJP.

However, on Sunday Mr Kumaraswamy said that there is an undeclared emergency in the country. “If the democratic and secular forces fail to counter the juggernaut of communal, anti-democratic forces, no one can save this country. That is why there is no question of joining hands with the BJP under any circumstances,” he added.

The elderly woman and her 45-year-old son were tested coronavirus positive on April 27 days after she got admitted to First Neuro hospital at Padil in the city.

Bengaluru, May 4: Former Karnataka chief minister HD Kumaraswamy on Sunday said that the health of the migrants who have been allowed to move, should not be jeopardized and appropriate tests must be conducted.

"The task was to send the workers to their places. However, their health should not be jeopardized. This decision made for their benefit should not be a travesty for them. There will also be physical interference on the buses and appropriate tests must be done," said Kumaraswamy.

"The lockdown, which was implemented without any prerequisites, is now loosened without warning. The state government, which has allowed migrant workers to move to the city, has mobilized large numbers of people. By this, the government is playing with their health," he added.

He continued saying that the government should not lose out on an unscientific move that resulted in the loss of thousands of crores of rupees from a custodial lockdown.

"Workers and villages must be sober. The government must take all necessary precautions in this regard," he added.
