<b>JD(S) MPs will oppose trust vote: Veerendrakumar</b>
Kozhikode (PTI): All the three JD(S) MPs, including H.D. Deve Gowda, will oppose the trust vote to be sought by the UPA government in the Lok Sabha on July 22, the party's Kerala unit President M P Veerendrakumar said on Friday.
"Gowda spoke to me this morning and said the JD(S) has taken a decision to oppose the confidence vote. He also wanted me to join the other two MPs in doing so and speak in Parliament as the party's Parliamentary leader", Veerendrakumar told reporters here.
Noting that he had already made his stand clear that he would not support the trust vote, Veerendrakumar said even if there was a party whip, he would defy it and vote against the government.
He would speak against the nuclear deal in Parliament, he added.
