Bangaluru: Rumours say that Lingasugur MLA Manappa Vajjal and Raichur city MLA Dr Shivaraj Patil are said to join BJP after the auspicious day of Makara Sankranti.

Speaking to the media persons on Tuesday the JD(S) state president H D Kumaraswamy said that party will not hold the duo back if they have made up their mind. He also added that the party doesn’t depend on such leaders for its survival.

And that the duos have made no such contributions for the party’s development but instead they have been benefited by the party.
