Bangalore: Karnataka Chief Minister BS
Yeddyurappa on Friday termed BJP's victory in all three seats in
the April 9 by-polls as a befitting reply to the "reckless
charges" hurled against his government by opposition Congress
and JDS.
"People have now given their reply to the allegations
made against my government. Let the opposition learn from this
and desist from making baseless allegations hereafter," he
said.
BJP candidates won from the Jagalur, Chennapatna and
Bangarpet constituencies.
Yeddyurappa also thanked the electorate and
complimented the winners.
JDS state unit president and former chief minister HD
Kumaraswamy said victory or defeat is not a permanent
phenomena in politics. "We are not perturbed by the defeat,"
he said.
He alleged that BJP had won the by-polls using money
power and said JDS would chalk out plans to strengthen the
party.
