Bengaluru, May 3 (IANS): In a major jolt to regional party JD(S) in Karnataka, the Chairperson of the Legislative Council and senior leader, Basavaraj Horatti joined the BJP on Tuesday in the presence of Union Home Minister Amit Shah.

Along with Shah, Union Minister for Parliamentary Affairs and Mines Pralhad Joshi, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai and former Chief Minister Jagadish Shettar were present on the occasion.

Horatti, representing Janata Dal (Secular) for decades, was one of its important leaders who contributed to the growth of the regional party in central and north Karnataka.

He contested in MLC elections. After joining the BJP, he is expected to further strengthen the base of BJP in the central and north Karnataka region.

Horatti belongs to the Lingayat Community from north Karnataka. Once a blue-eyed boy of former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda, he felt sidelined in the party after Kumaraswamy took over the reins of the party. Horatti had announced his decision to join the BJP much earlier, the formal announcement was not made till date.

    Horatti coming to BJP is problem for saffron party as he was with the group demanding Veerasaiva and Lingayat status with congress MB Patil. He looks very simple but is a big conspirator.

    This is actually good news for Congress. If JDS closes down its shop, it is better for all. Otherwise BJP will take full advantage of division of secular votes between Congress, JDS and now AAP. All three of them cannot win the elections unless they join together.

    Anilkumar, Mangalore you are wrong sir if jds closes down no where it's good for congress. 99% voters of jds will vote for bjp. The MLA's of jds much aware that I they go to congress they won't get anything ... ultimately if they join bjp the voters also vote fir bjp. And also there is a good ex of mysore loksabha election where congress and jds alliance fought against bjp and bjp won by huge margin. This is clear that jds voters won't support congress...

    I feel ashamed of congress/jd's after ruling so many years there stalwarts are leaving the party for one or other reason. It shows there high command do not have any hold in the party and run as through blowing wind. Can we come to the conclusion in coming days only one single largest party will be in India i.e BJP. As long time supporters of Congress/JD's will see any ray of hope in other side of tunnel in coming days or wants to switch on other parties as same become much weak.
