Mysuru: For the first time in the party’s history, 12 candidates including four women from Bahujan Samaj Party will be contesting the Mysuru City Corporation election. In the last assembly election, Bahujan Samaj Party created a history in Karnataka by getting a cabinet berth after winning from Kollegal constituency.

Keeping the momentum going, the party decided to continue to contest corporation election from ward No 7, 14, 15, 16, 17, 27, 33, 38, 39, 47, 56 and 60. The intention of the party’s contesting the election in 12 constituencies was to give better governance and make Mysuru city much cleaner.

State BSP President Hari Ram, addressing media persons at the Press Club here on August 24, said, “The candidates who have been selected to contest in 12 different wards are the locals involved in working for the ward for the past couple of years. Based on their good work in their respective wards, we have given a ticket to contest in the election. At the outset, Mysuru looks too good but a lot needs to be done inside. Soon after getting elected in the election, our candidates will lay more emphasis on overall development of the city.”

‘Minister Mahesh is doing a commendable job’

Hari Ram also mentioned that Karnataka’s MLA N Mahesh, the first BSP MLA outside Uttar Pradesh to become a cabinet minister with Primary and Secondary Education portfolio was doing a commendable job.
