I don't even think about joining it again.""I had decided to resign from my MLA post. But after suggestions by seniors and well-wishers, I stopped for some time. I can't speak openly now.

Also, even if Congress offers me Chief Ministership, I'm not happy with some developments of the Congress party. I have expressed my opinions to the person who needed to be told. I can't speak about it to the media," said the former Karnataka Minister of Water Resources Jarkiholi. Jarkiholi said that BJP and RSS have given me much respect and he doesn't need to go to the Congress party at any cost. "Even if I resign, I'll promote BJP," he said.
