The man and son duo Deve Gowda and H D Kumaraswamy and other leaders indicated adopting

Mayawati’s acumen to root out the national parties from the state. They stressed that the party was not bound to any ‘caste’ or ‘family’ but stood for depressed classes. Former chief minister H D Kumaraswamy claimed that B R Ambedkar’s ideals were akin to the JD(S) party’s principal of sharing the power with the oppressed

classes.

He also promised a loan waiver for Dalits like that of farmers. Gowda also analysed the caste system and expressed concern over marginalised communities, especially the nomadic tribes. “I suggest a separate

development corporation in the government for these communities,” suggested Gowda.
