Udupi, March 13, 2012: Interacting with reporters at a press conference in Hotel Kidiyoor on March 13 Tuesday, Deve Gowda, the JD (S) chief, predicted that the by poll results depend on the choice of voters as the competition between well-known political parties is quite stiff. He admitted that the JD (S) became stronger only after the entry of U. R. Sabhapathi, the popular politician.

Speaking about JD (S) achievements, he said that reservation is JD (S)’s contribution to society, owing to which even a woman from the fishing community can become the Taluk Panchayat president and the minority community could develop a political voice. He said that Muslims in Karnataka were given reservation when the BJP – JD (S) coalition was in power.

 

 

 

Stating that the Congress and the BJP are the same, he said that JD (S) is an open book, which has more achievements than failures. He also stated that his purpose in coming to Udupi is to campaign.

He also urged voters in Udupi to cast their votes in favor of the JD (S). He was accompanied by JD (S) workers Puttaraju, U. R. Sabhapathi, Ghulam Ahmed, Putte Gowda, M. B. Sadashiv, David Simone and many others.
