JOIN USKarnataka Power Minister D K Shivakumar on Wednesday met former prime minister H D Deve Gowda and sought his help to resolve the crisis in the Rajya Vokkaligara Sangha, Bengaluru.
Shivakumar was closeted with Gowda at his residence here for more than half an hour.
Emerging out of the meeting, Gowda told reporters, "Shivakumar requested me to take a lead in resolving the present crisis in the sangha. I have asked him to discuss the issue after the Parliament session."
Agreeing that Shivakumar’s meeting with him was the first in recent times, Gowda said political issues were not discussed during the meeting and it was limited to sangha activities.
The sangha was in the news recently after some of its officers-bearers were ousted and the issue went to the court.
