"We need a strong representation for the state in Delhi to fight for safeguarding its interests as the state had received a raw deal from successive governments in the past,’’he said. Kumaraswamy indicated that JD(S) was ``strong enough’’ in the state to independently fight the ensuing by-elections to five assembly constituencies in the state following the vacancies arising after the lok sabha polls. ``I can’t state at this point of time as to whether we will go it alone or fight the elections in alliances or seat-sharing understanding with the Congress. We will take a decision after examining all aspects,’’he said.
