Speaking to presspersons after addressing a public meeting at Udyavar, near Udupi, the former chief minister said some amount of confusion and dissent was there in all political parties, but dissent in the Congress was increasing by the day and reaching a point of no return. After the zilla and taluk panchayat elections, this dissent would spill out and even the Congress high command would not be able to control it.

The functioning of the Siddaramaiah government had left a lot to be desired. Besides the Opposition, it was now being criticized by its own leaders. Senior Congress leader B. Janardhan Poojary had openly questioned the calibre of the ministers in Mr. Siddaramaiah’s cabinet in Mysuru.

Former Chief Minister S.M. Krishna had publicly said there was no point in filling the potholes and asphalting the roads in Bengaluru only during the Invest Karnataka meet. He too had pointed at inefficient ministers in the cabinet. This showed that senior Congress leaders themselves were dissatisfied with the performance of the State government, he said. On the prospects of the BJP in the zilla and taluk panchayat elections, Mr. Yeddyurappa said the atmosphere was conducive to the BJP in the entire State.

Later speaking at the public meeting, Mr. Yeddyurappa said the State government was lethargic in implementing the Central schemes. Most of the Union government’s schemes were all aimed at the welfare of the common man, he said.

There was lack of governance in the State. With the result, the entire administrative machinery had become lethargic. Instead of holding monthly review meetings to oversee the progress of various departments, Mr. Siddaramaiah was holding them at the fag end of the fiscal year, Mr. Yeddyurappa said. Shobha Karandlaje, MP, Kota Srinivas Poojary, MLC, Raghupati Bhat, Lalaji Mendon, former MLAs, T.V. Hegde, Udaykumar Shetty, Suresh Shetty, Suresh Nayak, BJP leaders, were present.

It is common that there are enemies for the true leader.
if the leaders like chaddi yeddi who looted whole karnataka, all party leaders will be happy because they will also get corruption money.

Bengaluru, Jun 20: Nine candidates filed their nominations for the June 29 elections to seven seats of the Karnataka legislative council on Thursday.

While the BJP has fielded four candidates, the Congress has given tickets to two and the JD(S) to one candidate respectively for the biennial elections to seven seats of the legislative council to be elected by the MLAs.

One independent and one person claiming to be affiliated to BJP have also filed their nomination papers at the office of Legislative Assembly Secretary MK Vishalakshi, who is also the returning officer for the polls.

"The nominations of two candidates without any proposers is likely to be rejected during scrutiny of the papers on Friday. So seven candidates will be in the fray for as many berths. Hence the election is likely to be unopposed if no one withdraws nominations," official sources said.

While scrutiny will take place, Friday, June 22 is the last date for withdrawal of candidature.

The election is necessitated as the term of seven MLCs — Naseer Ahmed, Jayamma, M C Venugopal, N S Bose Raju, H M Revanna (all Congress), T A Sharavana (JD(S)) and independent D U Mallikarjuna — will end June 30.

Based on their strength in the Assembly, while BJP is in a position to win four out of seven seats, Congress can win two and JD(S) one.

Twenty-eight valid votes of MLAs are required for each candidate to win.

Four BJP candidates MTB Nagaraj, R Shankar, Sunil Vallyapure and Pratap Simha Nayak filed their nominations today, after the party high command announced their names late on Wednesday.

Nagaraj and Shankar had played a key role in the formation of the BJP government after the coup that led to the collapse of Congress-JD(S) coalition.They had subsequently defected to the saffron party.

While Nagaraj lost the bye-elections held later, Shankar did not contest in exchange for a Council berth promise.

Among the other BJP candidates, Vallyapure is a former MLA from Chincholi and had given up his seat abiding by the party decision to field Avinash Jadhav, while Nayak is a senior party worker and had served as Dakshina Kannada district president.

A BJP insider said Shankar and Vallyapure have been given MLC tickets as they had given up their Assembly seats, while Nagraj was considered as he had faced a defeat during the bypolls because party MP B N Bachhe Gowda's son Sharath contested as a rebel.

Nayak's candidature is being seen as BJP high command's choice by party insiders, ignoring the state units recommendation of AH Vishwanath, a former JD(S) MLA who had defected to BJP.

Two Congress candidates, senior party leader BK Hariprasad and incumbent Naseer Ahmed also filed their nominations today.

Hariprasad's name was announced by the party on Wednesday, even as his tenure in Rajya Sabha is to end on June 25.

Naseer Ahmed, who is retiring as MLC on June 30 is seeking another term.

The choice of candidates by the Congress high command is being seen as a mixed bag for CLP leader Siddaramaiah as Naseer Ahmed is said to be close to him, while Hariprasad is considered among his adversaries.

In a surprise move, JD(S) has fielded Govinda Raju from Kolar as the party candidate for the MLC polls.

Incumbent MLC T A Sharavana and outgoing Rajya Sabha member Kupendra Reddy were seen as the prime aspirants for the ticket.

JD(S) leader and former Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy said Govinda Raju was chosen as it would help organise and strengthen the party in Kolar and Chikkaballapura region.

The independent candidate who has filed his papers today is P C Krishnegowda, and the one who filed his nomination claiming to be associated with BJP is Mandikkal Nagaraja.

BJP has selected the candidates based on their wealth only and not on their education.    Wealth is the primary preference for bjp and these people come to politics only to skip from tax and accumulate unaccountable money and save black money.    they never come to politics with an intention to serve public.   We cant find 1 percent of politicians who is sincere and cares for public.    All of them are selfish and look their pocket only.   This is general in all the political parties.
