Even though former Minister and veteran politician A.H. Vishwanath, who is now a BJP MLC, fell out with the Congress, his two sons continue to be followers of former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah.
While his elder son Amith Devarahatti had served as the Congress party’s Zilla Panchayat member from Bheriya in K.R. Nagar in Mysuru, his youngest son Poorvaj Vishwanath is all set to formally join the Congress shortly.
After attending the 75th birthday celebrations of Mr. Siddaramaiah in Davangere recently, Mr. Poorvaj turned up for the padayatra launched by the former Chief Minister to celebrate 75 years of Indian Independence at Tagadur on Monday.
