Dharwad, Apr 18: Basavanand Swamiji of Sri Gurubasava Mahamane Mutt in Dharwad, who had decided to take a political plunge, has expressed disappointment over ticket denial by the Bharatiya Janata Party.

The visually impaired seer was hoping to contest from Kalghatagi constituency in Dharwad district. However, the BJP issued ticket to Mahesh Tenginkai.

Upset with this development, Basavanand Swami has said that he will concentrate on religious and social activities.

“I am very hurt at being denied a ticket. I now understand politics is not meant for me,” he added.

“I was inspired by Prime Miniser Narendra Modi and that’s why I had sought ticket from BJP”, he said.

The seer said he had already completed a “Desha Bhakti Jagruti Abhiyana”, which he had started on January 1 under which he had travelled 2,900 kilometres in Kalaghatagi constituency, focusing on patriotism, Swachh Bharat, water conservation, organic farming and anti-corruption campaign.
