Daijiworld Media Network – Bengaluru (RJP)
Bengaluru, Nov 10: B Z Zameer Ahmed Khan on Sunday said that H D Kumaraswamy’s contribution to the JD(S) growth was limited and that the party had survived because of its national president H D Deve Gowda and the party workers.
Speaking to reporters Zameer said. “I have decided neither to take part in any party activity nor accept any position. But I will remain in the JD(S) and have no plans to hop to any other party.”
Khan asserted that he had high respect for Deve Gowda and the party had survived because of his efforts.
Khan, who is the JD(S) MLA from Chamarajpet, was once a close aide of Kumaraswamy. His relationship with the party leader has turned sour now. Khan is said to be upset with Kumaraswamy for not giving him importance in JD(S) when he was trying to emerge as the Muslim face of the party.
Differences between B Z Zameer Ahmed Khan and H D Kumaraswamy have become public now with Zameer becoming more vocal of late.
