Muniratna the former Congress MLA from RR Nagar, who later joined BJP is likely to contest the bypolls on a BJP ticket.
The seat had fallen vacant after the disqualification of 17 rebel Congress MLAs by the then speaker KR Ramesh Kumar. While elections to 15 assembly seats were held on December 5 last, bypolls to two seats – Maski (in Raichur district) and Rajarajeshwarinagar (in Bengaluru) were postponed by Election Commission for alleged electoral malpractice.
