Basavraj Bommai concedes defeat for BJP; says party will be reorganised for LS polls

HAVERI: Agreeing that the party has failed to meet the mark, the Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai declared to analyse the defeat and reorganise the party for the Lok Sabha election scheduled next year.

Bommai was speaking to reporters in Haveri on Saturday. He won the election by a margin of 35,978 votes.

“We have not been able to meet the mark despite a lot of efforts by everybody right from the Prime Minister to the workers. Congress was able to make it,” Bommai told reporters.

“Once all the results come we will do a detailed analysis. As a national political party we will not only analyse what are the gaps and deficiency in different levels but also look into it and improve upon it. We will reorganize the party and come back during the Lok Sabha election,” the Chief Minister added.
