He further said that he would release a video of Prajwal Revanna."He has given statement that JD(S) is a suitcase culture party. The video will be released on Monday,"
he said.
Meanwhile, senior BJP leader K S Eshwarappa said that the state government will collapse in four days. "The allegations by Kumaraswamy are far from truth. We have not carried out operation lotus.
