the marriage/divorce of greed...

2 years ago H D Deve Gowda was considered so advanced as a conspiratinal genius that he was dreaded as an enemy. Now he is dreaded even as a friend.

2 years ago, while chief Deve Gowda was talking of an alliance with the Congress, his second son H D Kumaraswamy, split the party and joined hands with the BJP to form the government in Karnataka. There was a public display of the chief expelling his son from Janta Dal, today 2 years later they have come together and are conspiring again.

To those who are fairly acquanited with the Janta Dal escapade, it becomes fairly certain that Chief Deve Gowda has lost his marbles & he is writing his epitaph.

Deve Gowda ditched the Congress vide his son for the BJP. Then he ditched the BJP to woo the Congress. Then he ditched the Congress to remarry the BJP. Then he virtually ditched the BJP again with a 12 point dictat.

If the BJP ever does get to rule, it would be unprecedented in Indian history, as the BJP has never ruled in any of the 4 southern states since Independence. Deve Gowda could seal his fate if he does give into a communal political party. Incidentally, even if the BJP do come to power with Deve Gowda's support, the BJP would have sleepless nights as Gowda is keen to bed with any party but does not sleep over with any of them.

This situation is very similar to the one we had in Kerala with Karunakaran and his son K Muraleedharan. This kind of escapade was what these 2 were upto in Kerala. Today they have no loyals for no loyalties; maybe that is the price of greed.
