Shimoga: JDS leader and former chief minister later Sarekoppa Bangarappa’s Madhu Bangarappa is likely to join Congress party soon.
News of Madhu Bangarappa joining the Congress party has been doing the rounds for the past few months. Now putting all speculation to rest he has said, Madhu said, “I will wait for some more days”, while addressing his supporters who have won in the Gram Panchayat elections as independent candidates, at Talaguppa of Sagar taluk,
After losing the Lok Sabha byelection in October 2018 he had been keeping a low profile and also maintained distance not only from the JDS but even from leaders like former CM H D Kumaraswamy and the district party netas. He did not take part in any programs of the party during this period.
Speculation has been rife that he may join the Congress ever since the Lok Sabha by-election in October 2018. Congress leaders like Kagodu Thimmappa, former CM Siddaramiah and KPCC president D K Shivakumar and many others campaigned for Madhu in the district.
It may also be recalled that most of the Congress leaders mentioned their association with his father and former CM S Bangarappa.
