Hassan, Nov 11: Rubbishing the rumours about his possible departure from Janata Dal (Secular) over family feud as baseless, former minister and Holenarasipur MLA H D Revanna has said that he would be with the party till his last breath.

Speaking to media persons here, Revanna also clarified that party supremo H D Deve Gowda and JD(S) state president H D Kumaraswamy would take a call on issuing a ticket to his son Prajwal for the next general elections and asserted that he would not quit the JD(S) at any point.

"I have strived for the party for 18 years, before being chosen by the people as an MLA. Prajwal is just a party worker now. He is striving for its organisation from the grassroots-level. He has a bright future in the party. Prajwal too has recently informed that he would contest the polls, only if approved by Deve Gowda and myself," he said.

"We are concerned about the people of the state than our family and politics. Both the national parties are involved in mud-slinging, forgetting the welfare of the people", he alleged.
