One more round of political slugfest took place between the leaders of the BJP and the Congress on Friday following BJP State president B.S. Yeddyurappa’s prediction that anything could happen to the coalition government after the counting of votes on May 23, as “20 Congress MLAs are seriously dissatisfied”. He questioned the stability of the coalition government while remarking that these MLAs were expected to make “any decision any time” on their political future. He told reporters in Hubballi that there was no need for the BJP to make efforts to woo MLAs from the ruling combine. However, these claims drew severe criticism from top leaders of the Congress.
