Dismissing speculation of Janata Dal (Secular) joining the state government or extending any support, Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa on Friday said these are all just speculations.
The CM, who is in the national capital on a three-day tour, denied such reports that emerged recently after JD(S) leader and former Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy met him.
"It is all speculation, there is no truth in it. As one of the leaders of the Opposition party, Kumaraswamy had recently met me to discuss developmental related works. There was no political issue discussed in that meeting," Yediyurappa told reporters here when asked about the reports.
He also said that his party BJP has a comfortable majority in Karnataka and does not require any support from JD(S).
The CM also refuted the Opposition's charges that his son and BJP state vice-president BY Vijayendra was acting like a "super CM."
"My son as a Vice President of the BJP is working hard to strengthen the organisation. He is not interfering in the functioning of the government. Some of the opposition leaders are making baseless allegations out of jealousy looking at his political growth," he added.
