Reflecting strains in the JD(S)-Congress coalition government in Karnataka, Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy has said he was "not happy" being in the top post and was swallowing the pain like 'Vishakantha' (Lord Shiva), who drank poison.
Opposition BJP dismissed Kumaraswamy's emotional breakdown, terming him as a "legendary actor" and accusing him of "fooling common man."
On seeing the chief minister wiping tears, the crowd shouted, "We are with you."
