Weeks after he said that he will not contest from Chamundeshwari Assembly segment in Mysuru, speculation over former Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy’s probable entry into the poll fray from the constituency has resurfaced.
While speaking to a television channel in Mysuru, JD(S) MLC C.N. Manje Gowda claimed that Mr. Kumaraswamy, who was in Hunsur on Thursday to inaugurate a wrestling competition, told a group of party legislators including S.R. Mahesh, Ashwin Kumar and Mahadev, that he will be the party candidate from Chamundeshwari in the next Assembly elections.
He told the leaders that he would visit each village of the constituency during the next one to one-and-a-half month.
