Mysuru, Mar 5: Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said that national-level secular parties must join hands to defeat 'communal BJP'.

Speaking to reporters at the Mysuru airport on Monday, the CM said that the outcome of north-east Indian state elections, will have no impact on the upcoming polls in Karnataka.

"The reason for BJP's victory in north-east India is its pre-poll pacts with local parties," Siddaramaiah said dismissing reporters' questions summarily.

He expressed confidence that voters in Karnataka will not vote for BJP 'which is dividing society in the name of caste and religion'.

The BSP-JD(S) pre-poll pact is not a problem for the Congress. It will have no impact during the elections. "Our single aim is to defeat communal BJP," Siddaramaiah stressed.

He informed media people that he planned to go to Delhi on Tuesday in backdrop of the Rajya Sabha elections, where the candidate will be decided. "The Congress doesn't need the JD(S)'s help for this election," he said.

The CM revealed that industrialist and Bidar MLA Ashok Kheny will join Congress on Monday and none within the party has objected to his entry into the party. "I will not respond to guesses," he clarified.

Siddaramaiah also added that AICC President Rahul Gandhi will tour the Mysuru region and participate in campaigns from March 21-25. A massive convention of the party will be held in Mysuru on March 25.

Siddu telling to Muslims... He trying to please Muslims.. He is no. 1 pro muslim.. He will do eveything to get their votes

what secular ? which secular ? which family secular ? please define the word secular as it is being misused to the maximum extent. as we all know except BJP all other parties are communal as it is keep playing communal card , minority , majority and backord,,,,

Siddu knew that rahul gandhi cant do anything. Waste..

Desperate call from Siddu.... They all realized is difficult to defeat BJP....

Your so called secularism is time barred and ineffective. The question is why people should vote for you when you don't have any performance to show. Accusing BJP is an empty threat. You would be kicked out lock , stock and barrel. And then the doors of jails would welcome you like the fate of Lalu.

Sidda's face seen all over is not going to be helpful in any way.

What Sid Ra Miya of Conning-ress means, all Caste Based Pseudo secular Minority appeasing parties to some how mislead poor un informed public once again, as they used to do from year 1939

Of course, next you will ask that you been selected as the chief of that front, Siddha...
