Mysuru, December 17, 2021 (www.justkannada.in): The BJP candidate for the Legislative Council polls from Mysuru-Chamarajanagara Legislative Council, who lost the election, addressed a press meet today in Mysuru.
“Several BJP leaders, including the former Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa, leaders of both the districts, activists, District Incharge Minister Somashekar, MP Srinivas Prasad and Pratap Simha, and all the BJP MLAs made concerted efforts to ensure my victory in the LC polls. But I could not win even on my second attempt. I was very confident of winning this time. However, I won’t get distracted by this failure. I will continue to serve the party. I have the pain of people not accepting me. My struggle in life has been based on principles, but this failure has caused me pain,” he said.
He also said that he won’t make anyone responsible for his failure and blame himself. “The Congress-JDS secret alliance might also be the reason for my failure,” he added.
BJP District President Mangala Somashekar, City President Srivatsa, and others were present at the press meet.
