Former chief minister and JD(S) leader H. D. Kumaraswamy sparked controversy by alleging that the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) is attempting to impose Union Minister Pralhad Joshi as the state’s next chief minister if the party wins the upcoming assembly elections.
“Following the elections, Prahalad Joshi may become the new chief minister of Karnataka, according to RSS. Pralhad Joshi is a member of the Brahmin community that divided the Sringeri Mutt, not the Dakshin Karnataka-based Brahmin community “On Sunday, Kumaraswamy said this.
Joshi represents the Dharwad Lok Sabha constituency and is now the Union Minister of Parliamentary Affairs, Coal, and Mines.
He said this in response to Joshi criticising the JD(S) Pancharatna Yatre and asserting that a Navagraha Yatre ought to have been conducted in its place. Kumaraswamy claimed to have the list of potential deputy chief ministers.
“The party decided Joshi would be the next chief minister at a conference of RSS leaders that was held in Delhi. The party has also chosen 8 names for deputy CMs “stated HDK. He argued that voters shouldn’t be taken in by the RSS’s schemes and the BJP’s deceitful claims.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be in Bengaluru today ahead of the elections, where he will dedicate a number of national development projects.
