Congress leader Poojari says Kar will witness mid term polls.

Bangalore, Oct 11 (UNI) Congress leader B Janardhana Poojari today observed that mid term polls in Karnataka was the only solution to end political impasse in the state.

Speaking to newsmen here he said Governor Rameshwar Thakur had no other option but to recommend dissolution of the Assembly given the political scenario. Congress was not for cobbling up any arrangement with any political outfit and was ready to face the elections, he added.

Replying to queries he said both Bharatiya Jantata Party and the Janata Dal (Secular) had betrayed the people. It was unfortunate that BJP leader went to the people crying that he could not get the Chief Ministership, an event unheard of the state politics so far.

Asked about some of his party leaders making an attempt to form an alternative with support of JD(S) he ridiculed the idea and said his party supremo Sonia Gandhi was very firm against such ideas.

"Our leaders can try their best. But ultimately they will come to know about the reality," he remarked. He did not comment on the attempt being made by Union Minister M V Rajasekharan to form the government with the help of JD(S) and merely said Mr Rajasekharan was one of his good freinds.
