Truth Test in Karnataka - National farce

Truth test contested by both B S Yeddyurappa and HD Kumaraswamy is a national joke.  This shows how irresponsible Karnataka politicians can be.  When PM is working 18 hours a day, how is that Karnataka CM is able to find time to involve in such Truth tests.  As a public figure, there will be always someone in few thousands who will be dare him.  Is he going to take truth test every time someone dares him?  Then he has to find a place next to temple to save his commuting time and bunk attending his official work as CM.  On top of this, just think of the unwanted resources needed to control the crowd and provide protection during his visit to the temple all in the name of contesting with his opponents.  If he had gone to worship and offer prayers, at least it is justified.

HD Kumaraswamy's war of words and personal attacks just proves further that he has no interest in serving people.  He is only motivated in attacking CM personally instead of focusing his energy on challenging the ruling party on the right issues.  Kumaraswamy should realize his potential as the opposition party and should focus on paramount issues such as price hikes.  If he shows such maturity and plays as the right opposition party, he does not need to go around canvassing during the next election.  The people will vote him to power recognizing him by his show of maturity and his action in people's interest.

When will our politicians grow up?
