'Meet to solve differences'

Speaking to media persons here on Saturday, he said the workers and MLAs should follow party discipline and should not express their dissatisfaction in the public. Expressing opinions openly would harm the party’s image. “Whatever may be the differences, it should be resolved within the party. Action plan will be chalked out to overcome the differences among the party members,” he said.

“There was no threat to the government and he is confident that the party would complete the full term. The Party High Command will be approached to solve the differences, if any,” he added. Gowda disclosed that he would not contest the elections for the party presidentship.
