D K Shivakumar is no Chanakya: LoP R Ashoka

Belagavi, 22/6: “Chief Minister D K Shivakumar is no Chanakya. Chanakya would never resort to horse trading. The Congress party, which has resorted to horse trading, will be taught a fitting lesson,” Leader of Opposition (LoP) in the Assembly R Ashoka told reporters.

Ashoka’s remarks come on the back of the crossvoting controversy in the Council elections, wherein a number of JD(S) and BJP MLAs voted in favour of the ruling party.
