Mangaluru, May 20: After the chief minister B S Yeddyurappa opted for self-abortion of his government on Saturday paving way for the formation of JD(S)-Congress coalition government in the state, the workers of two parties in this coastal city raised slogans hailing each others’ leaders.

Soon after Yeddyurappa tendered his resignation without facing a floor test in the assembly, a group of JD(S) in front of the party office at Bendoorwell in the city distributed sweets and raised victory slogans. Interestingly, one among the workers shouted ‘Sonia Gandhi ki Jai’.

Speaking on the occasion JD(S) leader Vasanth Poojary said that the two parties have foiled all the unethical bid of BJP to purchase MLAs ahead of trust vote. He expressed hope that the coalition government led by H D Kumaraswamy would restore communal harmony in the coastal districts of Karnataka.

On the other hand, the workers of Congress party led by former MLA J R Lobo celebrated victory in front of the District Congress Committee office in the city.

While raising slogans hailing Congress leaders Rahul Gandhi, Siddaramaiah, D K Shivakumar and others, they included the name of chief minister designate H D Kumaraswamy too. Speaking on the occasion, Mr Lobo accused the BJP of misusing all powers attempting for horse trading in Karnataka.

Meanwhile, the Communist Party of India (CPI), which extended its support to the coalition government, said that the two parties should bury their minor differences for the national cause.
