Kere Manjunath ಕೆರೆ ಮಂಜುನಾಥ್
Bengaluru: The 'development achievement' of the person who won in Bengaluru South district, where the personal charisma of the candidates is more important than the ideology of the parties, is here. That's why there are more hat-trick heroes here. Seven of the 11 constituencies of this range have won three times in a row and are all set to enter the assembly for the fourth time. They are fighting to re-establish their winning streak in the other four constituencies.
Ramalingareddy of Congress, M. Krishnappa, BJP's R. Ashoka, Ravi Subramanya, Satish Reddy, M.Krishnappa, Munirathna have won a hat-trick and are back in the field in their respective fields. Significantly, new faces have come into the fray to compete with them.
In Bengaluru city party support is one weight, personal charisma is another weight. At one point the personal charisma and association with the voters of the constituency is capital for some candidates of Congress or BJP. Thus, they have been able to consistently show their winning smile.
No matter which party comes to power, Bengaluru has a tradition of four MLAs becoming ministers. Apart from the development of the capital, MLAs also hold important portfolios. That's why there are so many hearts yearning for victory here. However, it is equally true that people have never accepted those who do not develop charisma and do not get people.
BJP has been winning in Bengaluru South Lok Sabha constituency since Ananthkumar's time. M. Krishnappa of Congress, B.K. Hariprasad also did not see victory here. However, the picture of assembly constituencies here is different.
Ramalingareddy has won thrice from Congress in BTM layout. He had won four times from Jayanagar before that and the constituency and voters are well known to him. BJP and JDS are changing the candidate here every time. This has led to a stronghold for the Congress. In Vijayanagar, M. Krishnappa has built the stronghold of Congress. One time friend V. Somanna was also married to Krishnappa. Last time, H from BJP. Ravindra lost by a narrow margin. This time too, Ravindra is the opponent of Krishnappa and there is fierce competition.
BJP's R. Ashoka in Padmanabhanagar and also this time in Kanakapura, contested against Congress President D.K. Shivakumar is eager to retain Padmanabhanagar as well. Ashoka, who had won three times in a huge constituency like Uttarahalli, also won three times in Padmanabhanagar and achieved a 'double hat trick'. Raghunath Reddy from the Congress is in the fray to enter the Legislative Assembly once again. The fact that Shivakumar himself has claimed to be the candidate here has led to more competition.
Ravisubramanya in Basavanagudi, Satish Reddy in Bommanahalli, M. in Bangalore South. Krishnappa has won thrice from BJP. Ravi Subramanya, Satish Reddy, M. Even Krishnappa's opponents are changing every time. In all the three constituencies, the JD(S) was gaining votes, even though the Congress was putting up a lot of resistance. This time too Congress is the main opponent in these constituencies. Candidates are trying to wrest the seat from BJP. Basavanagudi U.B. Venkatesh, Bommanahalli film producer Umapathy Gowda, Bangalore South RK. Ramesh is contesting from Congress. R.K. Ramesh's problem is the rebel candidate Rajagopal Reddy. JD(S) is eager to get more votes and surprise as usual.
In Govindarajanagara BJP's Umesh Shetty is relying on V.Somanna Nambala. Priyakrishna of Congress is eager to win the constituency again this time. For this, his father, the party's constituency candidate M. Krishnappa is the backbone. The fact that Somanna, who had a good hold in the constituency, is busy coming here and campaigning, it seems that the Congress has gained more strength.
Muniratna Rajarajeshwari is the BJP candidate in the Nagar constituency, which has always been in controversy due to the voter ID card dispute and the election itself was delayed and unnecessary development. Muniratna, who has won twice from Congress and once from BJP, Congress MP D.K. Suresh stands as a backbone for the candidate Kusuma. In 2019, Kusuma was the rival of Muniratna, who had left the Congress and contested from the BJP. This time Being with D.K. Suresh has increased the competition.
BJP's Uday Garudachar and Congress' R.V. want to win the Chikkapet assembly constituency for the second time. Devraj is fighting again. In 2013 R.V. If Devaraj had won, Uday Garudachar would have won in 2018. Both are contestants for the third time and there is fierce competition. The fact that KGF Babu, who wanted to contest from the Congress, is in the fray as an independent, there are signs that Devaraj will attract votes.
In Jayanagar, BJP and Congress are again in competition to regain the seat. BJP, which had won the seat twice, lost to Soumya Reddy of Congress last time after the death of Vijayakumar. Activists saying that BJP lost because father Ramalingareddy-daughter Soumya Reddy and JDS were united, C.K. He is with Ramamurthy and is eager to take the seat again under the BJP wing.
There are different calculations of Congress and BJP in a total 11 constituencies, focusing on individual charisma, party ideology and local issues. There are 7 BJP and 4 Congress MLAs out of 11, and both the national parties are eager to retain them and win more.
