I hold secrets of some Congress leaders. In coming days I will be revealing them,” said former MLA and Congress leader Vijay Kumar Shetty.
Addressing a press meet here, Shetty said, I was kept aside on the pretext of giving MLC position previously. Even this time, I have been promised of getting MLC position. Congress leaders KC Venugopal and Vishnunath have promised me that they will arrange a meeting with Rahul Gandhi and me on April 27. Only after that, I will actively participate in campaigning for the Congress candidate of Mangaluru North constituency’s.
