Parameshwara added that the BJP, which is the opposition in the state, is attempting to destabilise the state government.
Amidst rumours of the government falling and a failure of the coalition, Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister G Parameshwara on Friday confirmed that ministers of the state have decided to continue supporting the coalition government led by Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy. Parameshwara made the statement following an informal meeting of ministers in the state in 'Krishna', the official residence of CM Kumaraswamy in Bengaluru. "The CM called an informal meeting to take stock of the elections after the Parliamentary results. We have discussed it at length. This mandate has been given for the national election and not the state election. We continue in the state with the coalition government led by CM Kumaraswamy. All our MLAs are with us," Parameshwara, who belongs to the Congress party, said. CM Kumaraswamy refused to speak to the media following the meeting. All questions addressed to him were answered by other ministers. Parameshwara further added that the BJP, which is the opposition in the state, is attempting to destabilise the state government. "Opposition is trying to destabilise our government. They will not be successful and we will not allow them to. This is the decision. We have reposed faith and confidence in the coalition government led by Kumaraswamy," Parameshwara added. In the results of the Lok Sabha elections announced on Thursday, the BJP swept 25 out of 28 seats in Karnataka, with the JD(S) and Congress, which fought the elections together, each winning just one seat. CM Kumaraswamy's son Nikhil Kumaraswamy and his father HD Deve Gowda were among the JD(S) leaders defeated in the elections. ಮುಖ್ಯಮಂತ್ರಿಗಳ ಗೃಹ ಕಚೇರಿ ಕೃಷ್ಣಾದಲ್ಲಿ ಮುಖ್ಯಮಂತ್ರಿ ಹೆಚ್.ಡಿ. ಕುಮಾರಸ್ವಾಮಿ ಅವರ ಅಧ್ಯಕ್ಷತೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ಅನೌಪಚಾರಿಕ ಸಚಿವ ಸಂಪುಟ ಸಭೆ ಜರುಗಿತು. ಸಭೆಯ ಬಳಿಕ ನಡೆದ ಮಾಧ್ಯಮ ಗೋಷ್ಠಿಯಲ್ಲಿ ಡಿಸಿಎಂ @DrParameshwara, ಕಂದಾಯ ಸಚಿವ @RV_Deshpande, ಕೈಗಾರಿಕಾ ಸಚಿವ @thekjgeorge ಸೇರಿದಂತೆ ಸಚಿವ ಸಂಪುಟದ ಎಲ್ಲ ಸದಸ್ಯರು ಹಾಜರಿದ್ದರು. pic.twitter.com/rV35381QcU — CM of Karnataka (@CMofKarnataka) May 24, 2019 Multiple political meetings took place in Bengaluru after the results were declared. First, a meeting of JD(S) leaders was held at the residence of HD Deve Gowda in Bengaluru on Thursday. Another meeting of Congress ministers was held at the residence of Deputy Chief Minister G Parameshwara on Friday. It was followed by an informal cabinet meeting held at ‘Krishna’, the official residence of the Chief Minister in Bengaluru. Since taking charge just over a year ago, the Kumaraswamy-led coalition government has been forced to fend off multiple attempts by the BJP to usurp power in the state. Reports have also suggested that the BJP will make another attempt to take power in the state following the Lok Sabha elections. In the 224-seat Karnataka Assembly, the Congress has 79 MLAs after the party won the bye-election in Kundgol constituency on Thursday. The JD(S) has 37 MLAs while the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) has one MLA. The BJP has 105 seats after its win in the Chincholi constituency on Thursday while two other MLAs are independents.
