New Delhi: Crisis deepens in JD(S) as National Executives of the party in a meeting on Monday suspended senior leader Surendra Mohan.
Hitting back at rebels, JD(S) has also revoked the suspension of Karnataka Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy and 38 MLAs who had aligned with BJP to form government in Karnataka early this year.
The rebels were opposed to the party aligning with BJP to form a coalition government in Karnataka and had campaigned against the JD(S) candidate in the recent Chamundeswari Assembly by-election in Karnataka. Congress candidate and former party leader Siddaramaiah had won the seat.
Sources said Kumaraswamy, who is in the capital, will attend the second session of the Executive as his suspension was revoked.
The decision was taken at a meeting of the National Executive of JD(S) held at the residence of former prime minister and party chief H D Deva Gowda.
The action against Mohan comes in the wake of the rebel faction owing loyalty to M P Veerendrakumar electing him as president after removing Gowda from the top organisational post.
Veerendrakumar was suspended from the party last week.
