Udupi, feb 1, 2017 :  The issue pertaining to the resignation of former chief minister S M Krishna from the Congress party is an internal matter of the party which would be  resolved internally  through talks,  said Rajya Sabha Member  and former union minister Oscar Fernandes.

Speaking to reporters here, he said  difference of opinion was normal in politics. " We will try to speak to him. Congress is a party which we all have  strived to build. All of us including S M Krishna have a greater responsibility," said Oscar.

To a question on  rumours that even  Jaffer Sharief would quit the party, Oscar said he had no such information.

"Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is aware of his responsibilities. There is no need to give him any advice. The high command has already issued suitable instructions to him," said Oscar

 On the comments of senior party leader B Janardhana Poojary, Oscar said "Poojary is discharging the responsibility entrusted on him by God. He has a special responsibility in the  party." "Poojary’s statements will not cause  embarrassment to the party in any way," he further added.
