Mangalore, October 29: Businessman Sadananda Shetty will contest Assembly elections from as the Janata Dal (Secular) candidate from the Mangalore South constituency, announced H D Kumaraswamy, Former Chief Minister and JD(S) State President, at a party convention held at Town Hall in Mangalore on Monday where Mr. Shetty was officially inducted into the JD(S).

Mr. Shetty was inducted into the party along with several others including Pascal Pinto, President, United Associations of Karnataka, Kuwait, on the occasion by Mr. Kumarswamy.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Kumaraswamy said that minorities must not get carried away by the recent Mangalore visit of AICC chief Sonia Gandhi. “Minorities will not get protection from Congress. The Congress party itself is in a state of mess and Ms. Gandhi's advise to party leaders about putting aside differences suggests just that. The Congress speaks about BJP's failures and corruption but none of the Congress leaders made an attempt to bring out BJP's corruption. JD(S) has been acting as the real opposition party in the state”, he said.

The Former Chief Minister also took a dig at Union Minister M Veerappa Moily for stating that the internal conflict of the BJP has ensured that Congress will win the next elections. “Moily's calculations are not going to work. People in his own Chikkaballapur constituency are plagued with problems which he has not attended to. JD(S) is not a party with kickback culture. Congress leaders are just fantasizing things and the JD(S) will make sure that regaining power for Congress is not all that easy”, he said.

Slamming his successor to the Chief Ministerial post B S Yeddyurappa, Mr. Kumaraswamy said that his governance has only burdened the people of the state with more taxes. 9 lakh beneficiaries were deprived of pensions in his tenure, he alleged.

MC Nanaiah, MLA, and senior JD(S) leader, said that people of Dakshina Kannada need to introspect as to whether BJP needs to be given another chance to rule the state. “They are the ones who sowed the seeds of 'Taliban' culture here”, he said.

Madhu Bangarappa, Amarnath Shetty, Nagaraj Shetty, MG Hegde, MB Sadashiva, Hyder Parthipady and other JD(S) leaders were present.
