'JD(S)-BJP combine cannot form Government'

Hubli, Nov 7: Former Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister and Congress leader Siddaramaiah today said it was impossible for Janata Dal(S)-Bharatiya Janata Party to combine to form the new Government in the state as there were many hurdles in the way.

Talking to newspersons here, he said, formation of the Government is ruled out for JD(S)-BJP combine, as legal problems would confront them.

Mr Siddaramaiah said he was ready to take over the charge of Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee to strengthen the party in the state, if the High Command desired it.
