BJP dumps ‘outsiders’ unceremoniously: Kumaraswamy

Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy, who was slated to travel to Ramanagara to campaign for his wife, Anitha, decided to cancel the exercise after Chandrashekar’s departure from the race.

He said that BJP was never known to treat outsiders well.

“Chandrashekar’s exit is an example of how the BJP poaches leaders from other parties and dumps them unceremoniously. I guess Chandrashekar quit the BJP notwithstanding the conduct of the party leaders, who didn’t fulfil the promises made to him.

“Earlier too we have seen the same happen with other leaders, including senior politician S M Krishna. The BJP welcomed him into the party very eagerly. But now he has been completely sidelined,” added Kumaraswamy.
