BJP leaders resign upsetting over Haladi’s working style
Udupi, May 4: Upset over the attitude of BJP candidate for Kundapura Assembly constituency and former MLA Haladi Srinivas Shetty, more than 20 leaders and workers including party former taluk general secretary Uday Kumar Poojari, Madamakki grama panchayat president Rajiv Kulal resigned from their primary membership of the party on Friday.
The BJP leaders belonging to the assembly constituency came to party district office here and submitted their resignation letters to party general secretary Kutyar Naveen Shetty. Accepting the resignation letters, he said that he would bring this to the notice of the district president, he said.
Later speaking to reporters here, Uday Kumar Poojari said that Srinivas Shetty has done nothing in the constituency and his working style is not acceptable. They were pained by the party decision to give ticket to Shetty. So, they could not work in favour of Shetty in the election. In view of this, they have decided to tender their resignation, he said.
Shetty is the MLA of Kundapur constituency for the last 18 years. But the development is zero. He is not speaking about the problems of the constituency in the Assembly session. When this is the situation, the BJP has given him the ticket again, he alleged.
After electing as the independent candidate, he had lodged false complaint against BJP workers and thus, cheated the party workers. They would take a decision on further course of action. They would remain silent in this election, he said.
