Modi praised dad due to his admiration: HDK

Reacting to Modi’s comments regarding his father, JD(S) state president H D Kumaraswamy said, “During his 10-month stint as prime minister, Deve Gowda gave a good administration. There wasn’t a single black mark during his regime. Modi must have praised my father because of his admiration for him (Gowda).”

When Gowda himself was posed the question, the JD(S) supremo said, “I have been travelling across the state. I haven’t watched the TV. I will comment on this issue tomorrow during the press conference,” he added.
