Speaking to the media after the JDS Core Committee meeting in Bengaluru on Tuesday, party leaders GT Devegowda and Nikhil Kumaraswamy said it is raining heavily resulting in disasters and that the BJP should take up the padayatra after the rain subsides. They said the core committee discussed all aspects, including the difficulties the party workers and people attending the padayatra have to face if it rains heavily. JDS core committee chairman Devegowda said the party leaders have told them to postpone the padayatra now as it is also the time for paddy cultivation.
