BJP doesn't need to poach MLAs: Eshwarappa

BJP MLA K S Eshwarappa, on Friday, said that BJP will not lure any MLAs of either Congress or JD(S). The days of the coalition government are numbered and it will collapse on its own, he added. Eshwarappa, who is in Mysuru to tour three districts ahead of the urban local bodies elections, spoke to reporters, here.

Replying to Water Resources Minister D K Shivakumar’s allegation that five BJP leaders have been trying to poach Congress MLAs, Eshwarappa said that Congress MLAs were weak. "Congress has no faith in its own MLAs. The coalition government is counting days and BJP will form the government soon," he remarked.
“We (BJP) will never try to buy MLAs from another party. BJP’s 104 MLAs are like ‘lions’ and we don't need MLAs from another party,” he averred.
