Bengaluru, Jul 1: As many as four Congress leaders have filed a petition in the Karnataka High Court, challenging their defeat in the recent Assembly elections and have cited EVM hacking as the reason.

Those approached the court include two former MLAs from Dakshina Kannada district. They are: B A Mohiuddin Bava, who lost to Dr Bharath Shetty in Mangaluru North and J R Lobo, who lost to Vedavyas Kamath in Mangaluru South.

After the announcement of results, both of them had claimed that EVMs had been tampered with in their constituencies.

Apart from them, M K Somashekar, who lost from Krishnaraja of Mysuru and Vasu who lost Chamaraja in Mysuru have approached the court. 

Interestingly, all these four Congress candidates were defeated by less known candidates from BJP.

Bengaluru, Feb 17: Days after 10 MLAs were inducted in the Cabinet, Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa is likely to expand his Cabinet again as some BJP MLAs are unhappy, said BJP sources.

Several leaders including Umesh Katti, CP Yogeshwar, Raju Gowda and MP Renukacharya are miffed over the recent cabinet expansion, claim sources.

On February 6, ST Somashekar, Ramesh Laxmanrao Jarkiholi, Anand Singh, K Sudhakar, BA (Byrathi) Basavaraj, Arabail Hebbar Shivaram, Hasavanagowda C Patil, K Gopalaiah, Narayana Gowda and Shrimant Balasaheb Patil took oath as ministers.

It should be noted that many MLAs had won the by-polls on a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) ticket in December last year after switching loyalties from the Janata Dal (Secular) (JDS) and Congress.

In the December 5 by-polls held in 15 Assembly constituencies, the BJP had won 12, while Congress managed to bag only two. One seat was won by an Independent candidate while the JDS drew a blank.
