Bengaluru: Ahead of the upcoming Karnataka by-polls, the state BJP appointed its party in charge on Sunday, October 03.
With the notification for the byelections to Hangal and Sindgi Assembly constituencies slated for Friday, the race for the party ticket has become intense in the BJP with aspirants making all-out efforts to woo the party high command.
Udasi’s son Shivakumar Udasi is a Member of Parliament and now his wife, Revathi, is aspiring to step into her father-in-law’s shoes. Her candidature is reportedly backed by local Sangh Parivar leaders.
Meanwhile, the former MLA and MLC Shivaraj Sajjanar, BJP Haveri district unit president Siddaraja Kalakoti, and district general secretary and former ZP member Krishna Iliger are noteworthy names in the race.
The by-polls will be held in the Hanagal and Sindhagi constituencies after the assembly seats here were vacated due to the death of MLAs. The seat in Sindhagi was vacated after the death of the MLA MC Managuli from Janata Dal (Secular) while the Hanagal seat was emptied after BJP MLA CM Udasi passed.
