Hassan MLA Preetham J. Gowda has said he will win with a margin of not less than 50,000 votes if JD(S) leader and former Minister H.D. Revanna contested against him in Hassan in the next election.
Speaking to presspersons here on Saturday, Mr. Preetham Gowda said “If my victory margin falls even by one vote, I will resign as MLA and go for re-poll. This is my challenge.”
For the last few days the BJP MLA and the JD(S) leader had been at the loggerheads over development works in Hassan. The JD(S) leader opposed the construction of the truck terminal at Kenchattahalli in Hassan taluk and the demolition of the Deputy Commissioner’s office complex in the city.
