Congress President Sonia Gandhi's decision should be watched out for, JD(S) patriarch H D Deve Gowda said on Wednesday, in a crytic remark made in the context of December 5 by-polls in the state.
".. what happens after election results, the supreme leader is Sonia Gandhi, what she will decide every body has to accept it in the Congress. We (JDS) don't have any supreme leader. We have to see what happens after election result is out," Gowda said.
Speaking to reporters in Mysuru, he said, if the coalition government had continued such a situation would not have existed.
To a question about the differences between Congress and JD(S) after the collapse of the coalition government, he said, "Do you expect us (Congress-JDS) to become one, immediately after the collapse (of the government)?"
