Chikkamagaluru: “Sumalatha Ambareesh is an independent candidate just for the record. In fact, she has the support of the Congress, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Karnataka Rajya Raitha Sangha (KRRS),” says Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy.
Speaking at Chikkamagaluru, HDK said, “It’s not just the BJP but Congress is also supporting Sumalatha. All types of efforts are being made to defeat Janata Dal (S) in Mandya”.
“Though BJP, Congress and KRRS have joined hands to defeat JD(S) in Mandya in the upcoming election, I am confident that the people will give Nikhil strength and support to become victorious. Everybody who is against Nikhil Kumaraswamy winning the election will get a befitting reply on May 23, when the results are out,” added Kumaraswamy.
