Bellary: Former PM, present MP and supremo (founder) of JD-S, H.D. Devegowda prevented what would have been a walk out of Gali Janardhana Reddy group followers led by B.Sriramulu from BJP into JD-S this week, as Devegowda is a veteran of political tricks over decades and he did not allow Sriramulu taking a lead under a haunting fear of getting trapped by CBI anyday. But the father (MP) sent a curt message to son(MP and JD-S state Chief)HDK, also an MP, to wait and not to fall over in hurry.
A few days back, the sworn enemies Sriramulu and KumaraSwamy under mediator Basava Raj Yetnal met in a secret place and discussed future game plans to move politically forward. The three believed that in politics, there were no permanent foes or friends Devegowda countered by challenging Sriramulu to open a new party and prove his mettle first. Speaker Bopaiah has not accepted Sriramulu’s resignation as MLA from BJP. Devegowda may prove to be a killer for Sriramulu.
