Ahead of taking oath as chief minister of Karnataka, H D Kumaraswamy today said there would be certain limitations in a coalition government and he would have to take the consent of his coalition partner, the Congress.

The JD(S) leader reiterated that he would waive farm loans after improving the state's economy.

Speaking to reporters at Mysuru after worshipping Goddess Chamundeshwari on the Chamunda Hill, he said, "I have limitations as a head of the coalition government. I have to take our coalition partners into confidence."
