Bantwal, May 2: Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh leader Prabhakar Bhat Kallada is confident that Bharatiya Janata Party candidates will defeat Congress in five or six constituencies of Dakshina Kannada districts.

The hardline Hindutva leader, who is for the first time formally campaigning for the BJP in the assembly polls, predicted in an interview that the poll results would prove pre-poll surveys wrong. 

“There is an undercurrent of support for the BJP. I am sure the BJP will get a majority and form the government. In Dakshina Kannada district too BJP will win five to six constituencies for sure. I am confident of BJP victory in Bantwal, Puttur, Belthangady, Moodbidri and Sullia,” he said.

In 2013 Karnataka assembly polls, the BJP had managed to win only Sullia assembly constituency in Dakshina Kannada, and lost seven other seats to the Congress. However, this time the saffron party will take revenge against the Congress in most of the constituencies, according to Bhat.

Bengaluru, May 31: In spite of opposition, chief minister BS Yediyurappa has appointed his former personal assistant and maternal grandnephew NR Santosh as his political secretary.

Santosh is the fourth political secretary to the CM besides SR Vishwanath, MP Renukacharya and Shankaranna Munavalli. 

Santosh was arrested for allegedly trying to kidnap Vinay NS, personal assistant of BJP leader KS Eshwarappa in 2017. He's also facing attempt to murder and dowry harassment charges.

The 30-year-old had fallen out with the CM's younger son BY Vijayendra soon after the BJP came to power and had been reportedly asked to keep away from him. He had identified with some MLAs who were up against the CM.

It's said the appointment was made to send out a message to the rivals after some MLAs launched a renewed campaign against Yediyurappa over a dinner meeting at BJP MLA Umesh V Katti's house. 

Though Yediyurappa was not keen, sources said Santosh brought pressure from RSS and some BJP leaders, whose help he had sought to reunite with the family. 

Santosh from Tumakuru is the son of the CM's sister's daughter. He was Yediyurappa's Man Friday and his job was confined to ensuring he took his medicines on time.
