Give Honorable post to Krishna Palemar or face poll boycott
Mangalore Chapter of State Kshatriya Union warns BJP
Mangalore. April 26: ‘ Kshatriya community is deeply pained by the denial of BJP ticket to former minister Krishna Palemar from Mangalore north Constituency. BJP should assure a prominent post to a loyal and committed leader like Krishna Palemar or else the community will either boycott the polls or remain neutral’, warned the Mangalore Chapter of State Kshatriya Union.
The president of the Mangalore Chapter, J.Krishnanand Rao addressed a press conference today and said that Krishna J.Palemar, a great leader of Kshatriya, a backward community, had striven for the development of the District taking in to confidence of every section of the society.. He has ably managed that no communal or untoward incidents occurred in his constituency. He was instrumental in the victory of BJP in the last elections. He was generous in his contribution to the construction of offices for BJP and RSS. It is unfortunate that he was denied the ticket even after the state BJP president asked him to be ready to file the nomination.
We are trying to meet the PM Narendra Modi at Udupi and urge him to provide a major role for Palemar in the party. 99.99 % of our community are supporters of BJP, however if no assurances are given, we should not be held responsible for the future actions of the community, he warned.

Swara Bhasker cries foul play, claims EVM's tampered after husband trails following steady lead
Mumbai: Actor and activist Swara Bhasker raised concerns about the functioning of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs), after her husband Fahad Ahmad, the candidate from Sharad Pawar's NCP faction was trailing behind Sana Malik, the candidate from Ajit Pawar's NCP faction, by over 3,000 votes as counting nears completion.
Taking to micro-blogging platform ‘X’, Bhasker alleged irregularities in the voting process. “In Anushakti Nagar assembly seat, after a steady lead by Fahad Zirar Ahmad of NCP-SP till round 17, 18, 19, suddenly EVMs with 99% battery charge are opened, and BJP-supported NCP-Ajit Pawar candidate takes the lead,” she posted.
She further questioned the Election Commission, saying, “How can machines that have been voted on ALL day long still have 99% charged batteries? Why do all such EVMs favor BJP and its allies?” Bhasker tagged the Election Commission and Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) leaders, urging them to investigate the matter.
In addition, Fahad Ahmad also expressed skepticism over the results, stating he had been leading until the 17th round and vowed to seek clarification from the Election Commission.
The Anushakti Nagar contest has drawn significant attention, with a high stakes battle between Fahad Ahmed facing Sana Malik, daughter of veteran leader and former Maharashtra minister Nawab Malik.
The Nationalist Congress Party (Sharad Chandra Pawar Faction) contested on 87 seats, and is currently leading on 13 seats.
The Election Commission is yet to respond to the claims of irregularities.
