Siddu to contest next Assembly polls from Chamarajpet?


Bengaluru: Opposition leader and former Chief Minister
Siddharamaiah, who just managed to scrape through in Badami Constituency in Bagalkot district in the 2018 Assembly polls, is likely to contest from Chamarajpet Assembly segment of Bengaluru City in the next polls.
Siddharamaiah, who was Congress CM in 2018, had contested in two seats — Chamundeshwari, his home constituency in Mysuru and Badami. But badly lost to his JD(S) rival G.T. Devegowda in Chamundeshwari by a huge margin of 36,000 votes and barely managed to win in Badami, defeating his nearest rival B. Sriramulu of BJP by just 1,700 votes.
With the 2023 Assembly polls just over two years away, Siddharamaiah is said to be planning to contest from Chamarajpet, which is now represented by Zameer Ahmed Khan of Congress, who is considered as his close associate. Chamarajpet constituency has a large Muslim electorate and with the minorities and backward classes said to be strongly behind Congress, Siddharamaiah considers this as a safer constituency. Even the current MLA Zameer Ahmed Khan is readily willing to forego the constituency in favour of Siddharamaiah in case he chooses to contest from here. Zameer may move to Shivajinagar, which is now represented by his fellow Congress MLA Rizwan Arshad.
