Bagalkot, Apr 13: The State BJP President B S Yeddyurappa on Friday expressed confidence that the BJP would repeat the performance in Karnataka it had registered in the Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections.

"Just 29 days remain for Assembly elections and the dream of Congress free Karnataka will be a reality," he said at a party convention here.

He called upon the party workers and leaders not to waste even a minute and work hard for the party's victory.

"Siddaramaiah is convinced of his defeat and hence he is planning to contest from two Assembly segments. He will be defeated in both the constituencies," the former chief minister added.

Yeddyurappa compared the Congress party to a sinking ship. "The Congress won't even gather 1000 people for Rahul Gandhi's visits if Siddaramaiah is thrown out of power. The Congress divided the society to remain in power and its rule will end soon," he said.

Regarding rebellion within BJP after it announced the first list of candidates, he said that the party was giving tickets based on surveys. There is no need for others to be disappointed if tickets are denied to them.

Hassan: Former Prime Minister and JD(S) supremo H.D. Deve Gowda has announced that his son, former Karnataka Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy will contest from state's Mandya parliamentary seat as NDA candidate.

Deve Gowda told reporters on Tuesday that the decision to field Kumaraswamy, who is also JD(S) state president, in Lok Sabha polls from the Mandya seat was taken amid mounting public demand. "People are demanding that Kumaraswamy should contest from Mandya. In the core committee meeting as well, all members suggested that he should contest from Mandya," Deve Gowda said.

The former Chief Minister's son Nikhil Kumaraswamy had lost to independent candidate Sumalatha Ambareesh from Mandya in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls.

The JD(S) supremo further said that the name of senior leader Mallesh Babu has been finalised from the Kolar seat.

Deve Gowda's grandson and former Karnataka Minister H. D. Revanna's son sitting JD(S) MP Prajwal Revanna will be contesting as the NDA candidate from the Hassan seat.

Earlier in the day, Kumaraswamy in a media briefing indicated that he would contest from Mandya amid mounting public pressure on him.

Congress has fielded Venkatarame Gowda popularly known as ‘Star Chandru’ from the Mandya seat dominated by Vokkaligas. Star Chandru is a close associate of Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar.
