Hangal crucial for Basavaraj Bommai to consolidate his position
The Hindu
He is said to be wary of elements within BJP who want leadership issue to remain open
Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai, whose political leadership is yet to be electorally proven, faces his first test in the Hangal bypolls in his home district Haveri. This is evident by the fact that Mr. Bommai has camped in the constituency for over a week and led the campaign from the front.
Sources said Mr. Bommai was disturbed by “intra-party intrigue” that wants him to suffer a setback “to ensure that the leadership question is still open” before the 2023 Assembly elections.
