Mangaluru: Minister of food and civil supplies U T Khader stated that feared by the power of Congress in the coastal region, BJP National President Amit Shah has decided to camp in Karnataka.

Addressing a press conference in Mangaluru on Friday, Khader said, BJP's National President himself is coming here due to the failure of party's state team in recognizing the power of the Congress.

Amit Shah can do his party activities in the coastal region. Even Constitution allows it. But he should not try to play divisive politics by disrupting the unity of the district with communal remarks.

Amit Shah is scheduled to visit the coastal region on February 19.

Shivamogga: Independent candidate KS Eshwarappa has refuted any intention of withdrawing from the election fray, dismissing rumors suggesting otherwise. He said false rumors are being spread to confuse his supporters and affirmed his resolve not to withdraw even if Brahma- Modi ask him to do so.

Eshwarappa addressed Madhu Bangarappa's objection to his characterization of him as a dummy candidate from the Congress party, stating that he stands by his statement. He noted a perceived compromise between Congress and BJP, pointing out a lack of proper campaigning by Congress and a mutual absence of criticism between Madhu Bangarappa and Raghavendra. Eshwarappa shrugged off criticism, asserting his focus on the electoral race. He further spoke about aligning his actions with this principle as an RSS worker.

Gulihatti Shekhar, Kachinakatte Satyanarayana, Mahalinga Shastri, Gangadhar Mandenakoppa, Shivaji, Rajanna, Thippeswamy, Vishwas, and others were present at the press conference.
