The BJP in Karnataka expressed concern as two MLAs and an MLC attended a Congress dinner after a CLP meeting. These individuals, once part of the Congress and JDS, joined BJP in 2019. Speculations arose about potential rejoining of Congress or quitting BJP. BJP's state president planned to discuss this issue with them, while Congress claimed they attended a dinner, not the CLP meeting. The move raised questions amid potential party shifts ahead of the Lok Sabha polls.
