Mangalore Today News Network

Mangaluru, Jan 30, 2017 : Senior Congress leader B Janardhana Poojary has regretted the exit of veteran Congressman  and former chief minister  SM Krishna from the party.

Speaking to reporters here on January 30, Monday, Poojary  said  Krishna was sidelined in the party resulting in his exit. The party  should have treated a leader of the calibre of Krishna in high esteem, said Poojary.

He said that the  veteran Congress leader was deeply hurt by the way the party treated him.

On this occasion, Poojary  once again launched a tirade against Chief Minister  Siddaramaiah and declared that  the Congress  will have a bright future in the state, provided Siddaramaiah walks out of the party.

Poojari also felt that Krishna had taken a  hasty decision to quit despite  Congress President Sonia Gandhi whom he met some time back had advised him against it.

Poojary further appealed to Krishna  against   joining  any other party  and warned that other parties may end his political career after making good use of his strength. He also hoped that the Congress leadership would always keep its doors open for the leader in case he decides to return.
