Bengaluru: With Chamundeshwari JD(S) MLA G.T. Devegowda (GTD) maintaining a distance from party leaders and party affairs for the past couple of months reportedly due to serious differences with top brass, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has made an open call to GTD asking him to leave JD(S).
Addressing a poll rally at Doddamalur near Channapatna on behalf of Channapatna Congress candidate C.P. Yogeshwar yesterday, Siddaramaiah said that GTD, who is an old friend of his, should come out of JD(S) as JD(S) leadership will not allow any other party leader to grow, except the family members of H.D. Deve Gowda clan.
