Alliance candidates to win all 28 seats: Siddaramaiah
Bengaluru: Former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah today expressed hope that Congress-JDS alliance candidates would win in all the 28 constituencies.
He was speaking with presspersons after Congress candidate Krishnabyre Gowda filed nomination from Bangalore North Lok Sabha constituency on Tuesday.
"Union Minister DV Sadananda Gowda, who represents the Bangalore North Lok Sabha constituency, had no contribution to the development of this region in the past five years," Siddarmaiah criticised.
"Congress candidates will emerge victorious in all the three Lok Sabha constituencies in the Bangalore district. Krishnabyregowda has been fielded from the Bangalore North constituency to keep the communal party out of power," the former chief minister said.
Deputy Chief Minister Dr. G. Parameshwar, Minister Zameer Ahmed Khan and others were present.

Teen dies in car stunt accident in Kerala, driver held
Thrissur (Kerala) (PTI): A man was arrested on Monday after a 14-year-old boy was killed when a car overturned during a stunt-driving incident at Chamakala Rajiv Road beach in Chentrappinni here, police said.
The arrested accused was identified as Shajeer alias Saddam (36), a native of Kurikkuzhi in Kaipamangalam.
According to police, the incident occurred around 6 pm on Sunday when the accused allegedly performed dangerous drifting manoeuvres with an open-top Gypsy vehicle at the beach, without following any safety norms.
The accused picked up three minors — Mohammed Sinan (14), Mohammed Shafeer (14) and Ameer (12) — who were playing at the beach, and made them sit at the rear of the vehicle before driving recklessly.
While performing the drifting stunt, the vehicle went out of control and overturned, trapping Sinan underneath.
He suffered severe head injuries and succumbed to the impact, police said.
Based on a complaint, Kaipamangalam police registered a case under Section 105 (culpable homicide) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.
After completing the preliminary probe, police arrested Shajeer on Monday.
He was later produced before a court and remanded to judicial custody, police said.
The accused is involved in 11 criminal cases.
