‘If they were strong, why did they lose in the last LS polls’
Former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Sunday questioned the political strength of JD(S) in Mandya district by recalling the party’s loss in the last Lok Sabha elections.
Speaking to reporters in Mandya, Mr. Siddaramaiah claimed that the JD(S) had become politically weak in Mandya, which is considered to be one of the party’s strongholds. “If they were strong in Mandya, why did they lose in the last elections to the Lok Sabha?” the Congress leader questioned.
It may be mentioned here that Nikhil Kumaraswamy, son of former Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy, who was the party’s candidate in the elections to Lok Sabha from Mandya, lost to Independent candidate Sumalatha Ambarish.
