BJP Vokkaliga members say JD(S) pact has jeopardised their futures

BJP Vokkaliga leaders from regions including Mysuru and Hassan are upset over their political future after the party allowed JD(S) to select the candidate for the Channapatna bypoll. This move, favoring JD(S), demoralizes BJP's local functionaries who fear becoming redundant. Experts suggest that the alliance benefits JD(S) more and is unlikely to last long.
