No discussion with BJP yet on alliance for local body polls: Nikhil

Stating that there has been no discussion yet on contesting the local body elections in an alliance, Youth Janata Dal (Secular) leader Nikhil Kumaraswamy on Friday said that discussions would take place after the polls are announced.

“The senior leaders in both parties (JD -S and BJP) will decide whether to go to polls together or not. We will take up activities to strengthen our party,” Mr. Nikhil Kumaraswamy told presspersons here. “We went in an alliance in Parliamentary polls. Even now, we will have a cordial arrangement with State and Central leaders of the BJP.”
