| | The Hindu : Karnataka News : Janata Dal (Secular) slams BJP's claims |
 | | The Janata Dal (Secular) has said that the claims made by the Bharatiya Janata Party that it is the only viable alternative to the Congress in the State is false, going by the performance of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) Government at the Centre. |
 | | The Janata Dal (S) spokesmen, M.V. Sriganesh and T. Prabhakar, told presspersons here today that if the Congress Government in the State was anti-farmer, anti-poor, and pro-urban, and if its rule was marked by maladministration, as alleged by the BJP, the performance of the BJP-led NDA Government at the Centre was no better. |
 | | It was only the Janata Dal (S) which could lay claim to form the next government in the State, particularly after the good showing of the party governments between 1983 and 1989, and between 1994 and 1999,a according to the spokesmen. |
