Several BJP candidates in the state are incompetent: BJP MLA Yatnal
Bengaluru: People will vote by looking at Narendra Modi and not by looking at candidates in 28 Lok Sabha constituencies. Many incompetent candidates are contesting in the state," stated BJP MLA Bassan Gowda Patil Yatnal.
Speaking after visiting the residence of late Ananth Kumar on Tuesday, he said that Tejaswini Ananthkumar, who was an aspirant of BJP's ticket from Bangalore South constituency, had to get the ticket.
"It was Ananthakumar and Yeddyurappa, who built up the BJP in the state. Nobody is looking at the Lok Sabha candidates in the state. Instead, people want to re-elect Narendra Modi as Prime Minister of the country. We are seeing such dark days in politics," he said over the selection of BJP candidates.
