Mysuru, Apr 15: Upping ante against chief minister Siddaramaiah, JD(S) state president H D Kumaraswamy has said that Congress cannot win more than 40 seats in upcoming Assembly elections in Karnataka.

Speaking to reporters here, he said that the JD(S) will be the 'king' and not 'kingmaker' as, according to him, it will win over 100 seats and emerge as single largest party.

In response to the poll survey conducted by a media house, recently, Kumaraswamy said that media adviser to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, Dinesh Amin Mattu, has worked in the survey.

"I know how he (Mattu) influenced the survey. I have every document of it. According to the survey, while the Congress is expected to win 90-101 seats, the BJP may win 78-86 seats, and JD(S) is expected to win 34-43 seats. JD(S) will play the role of kingmaker in the state.

“However, people have decided to make us the king and not kingmakers. In the 2004 elections, the then survey had projected that the JD(S) will win just two seats. But, we won 52 Assembly segments. Compared to 2004, the party is much stronger," Kumaraswamy said.

If Mr. Yediyurappa gives permission as reqested by Ibrahim, it will be adisastor for Muslims community, Saudi Arabia imposed , full curfew from 23rd to 30th May, 2020, this is to avoid Eid gathering and spread of Corona Virus, our community should boycott such so called self declared leader.

Any new cases of Covid-19 cases will be blamed as Eid Jihad, request all our like minded people to protest this request.

CM Ibrahim is just trying to attract media and public atttention. he is a useless politician.

Who is he? What is he? And what did he do to Muslim community and who gave him the authorization to talk to the minister of behalf of Muslim Community

It will be disastrous for PR, and Joy ride for Atunab & sudir...

This Chadi people will be very happy and start calling this Eid Jeehad...
