MLC Vishwanath predicts Congress defeat in by-polls
Mysuru: MUDA and Valmiki Corporation scams will hurt the Congress party’s prospects in the upcoming by-polls in the three Assembly Constituencies in the State, said MLC A.H. Vishwanath.
Addressing the mediapersons at Jaladarshini Guest House here this morning, Vishwanath said with that present Congress State Government embroiled in scams and controversies, the party will face the rejection of the people who will favour NDA candidate Nikhil Kumaraswamy in the Channapatna by-poll.
Taking a dig at Congress candidate C.P. Yogeshwar, Vishwanath said that the former BJP MLC Yogeshwar was involved in Mega City scam amounting to crores of rupees in which many people had lost their money.
Alleging that the Lokayukta Police were in favour of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah, who was responsible for downgrading the Lokayukta institution in his earlier term, Vishwanath added that the entire investigation was not being done impartially and called for an investigation by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
