Bengaluru, Oct 5 (SocialNews.XYZ) NDA candidates K.M. Suresh and A.P. Ranganath on Monday filed their nomination papers for the Karnataka Legislative Council elections, with Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) State President B.Y. Vijayendra expressing confidence that the NDA would win all four seats.
Suresh, the NDA candidate from the South-East Graduates’ constituency, and Ranganath, the candidate from the Bengaluru Teachers’ constituency, took out a padyatra from Lalbagh to the Regional Commissioner’s office in Shantinagar, where they submitted their nomination papers.
Speaking to the media after the filing of nominations, Vijayendra said the electoral atmosphere was favourable and that BJP and Janata Dal (Secular) (JD(S)) leaders and workers were working with determination to secure victory.
“We are working with the determination to win the elections along with the leaders and workers of the JD(S). The dignity and sanctity of the Legislative Council must be protected. Good candidates like these should get elected,” he said.
Vijayendra said the NDA would work with the resolve to ensure the victory of all its candidates.
He added that NDA candidates Namashi and Sankanoor would file their nomination papers on Tuesday.
“We have complete confidence that our NDA candidates will win all four seats,” Vijayendra said.
Union Minister for Heavy Industries and Steel and State JD(S) President H.D. Kumaraswamy said that the two NDA candidates had submitted their nominations.
“BJP State President B.Y. Vijayendra, Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Assembly R. Ashoka and Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Council Chalavadi Narayanaswamy were present. We are confident that we will fight unitedly and that the NDA candidates will emerge victorious in these two seats.
“There will be elections for two more seats, and we are confident of winning those seats as well,” Kumaraswamy said.
He added that during the tenure of the BJP-JD(S) coalition government, significant contributions were made to the education sector, particularly in the Teachers’ and Graduates’ constituencies.
Against that backdrop, Kumaraswamy said he was confident that teachers and graduates, particularly in view of the KPSC scam, would support the NDA candidates in opposition to the ruling establishment.
Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Assembly R. Ashoka, Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Council Chalavadi Narayanaswamy, BJP and JD(S) MPs, MLAs, MLCs and other party leaders were present.
Later, BJP-JD(S) leaders held a meeting regarding the Legislative Council elections.
