Karnataka floor test: Jinxed? Former PM Deve Gowda, his son HD Kumaraswamy haven’t completed their terms
As Karnataka gets ready for the floor test, we look at the fate of the Gowda family. Former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda and his son, HD Kumaraswamy, the incumbent chief minister of Karnataka have had a history of not completing their tenures in office.
With the Kumaraswamy-led coalition government stumbling to retain power in Karnataka, it is interesting to note that neither former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda nor his son HD Kumaraswamy have completed their terms in top positions. While Deve Gowda did not complete his term as Karnataka chief minister and as India’s Prime Minister, his son HD Kumaraswamy also did not complete his term as a chief minister earlier.
