I once again would like to reiterate," Shivakumar said.Earlier in the day, DK Shivakumar apologised for reciting the RSS anthem in the Assembly.Shivakumar said that he was pulling the legs of BJP leaders and did not want to hurt the feelings of anyone across party lines.Addressing a press conference, he said, "I just commented and tried to pull their (BJP) leg.

I would like to seek an apology from all of them."Shivakumar had firmly denied speculations of joining hands with the BJP and RSS earlier as well, reaffirming his loyalty to the Congress party."My blood is Congress, and my life is Congress. I am given the responsibility of leading the party in the state, and I firmly stand with the party," he said while speaking to reporters at Vidhana Soudha.This comes after he sang the RSS anthem "Namaste Sada Vatsale Matrubhoome" in the Karnataka Assembly, which has triggered discussion on his joining the BJP.The incident occurred during a debate in the Assembly on Thursday, when BJP MLA R Ashoka pointed towards Shivakumar, emphasising that the state government should take responsibility for the Chinnaswamy Stadium stampede.Shivakumar retorted that he knew all about the BJP's tricks, and then proceeded to recite a few lines of the RSS anthem.
