Mangaluru, Mar 22: A day after Bharatiya Janata Party officially confirmed the candidature of incumbent MP Nalin Kumar Kateel from Dakshina Kannada Lok Sabha constituency, the Congress today decided to field Youth Congress district chief Mithun Rai. Interestingly both candidates belong to strong Bunt community.
Former Dakshina Kannada district in-charge Minister B Ramanath Rai, education entrepreneur Kanachur Monu, former Mangaluru North MLA B A Mohiuddin Bava, former Minister Vinay Kumar Sorake, Rajya Sabha member B K Hariprasad and SCDCC Bank president M N Rajendra Kumar were among the other aspirants for Congress ticket.
Besides, former union minister B Janardhana Poojary had also demanded ticket and recently threatened to contest as an Independent if the Congress fielded Rajendra Kumar.
The Social Democratic Party of India, which hopes to garner Muslim and Dalit votes, has already fielded party’s state president Ilyas Mohammed Thumbay from Dakshina Kannada.
