Kolar: After a long wait and lot of speculations, Congress has finally announced KV Gautam as it’s candidate for Kolar Lok Sabha seat

On March 27, three MLAs and two MLCs from Kolar district had threatened to submit their resignations from the membership of the Legislative Assembly and Council, respectively, opposing the possible candidature of Chikka Peddanna for the Kolar (SC) Lok Sabha constituency.

Deputy Chief Minister Dk Shivakumar, speaking to reporters at his residence in Bengaluru on March 28, said, “The issue will be discussed in a meeting with Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. No one will resign from the party over this.”

The Congress MLAs had warned the high command that they would resign if the Congress ticket from the Kolar Lok Sabha constituency was given to the family of Minister KH Muniappa.

Kolar MLA Kothur Manjunath, Malur MLA KY Nanjegowda, Minister MC Sudhakar, Vidhan Parishad member Anil Kumar, and Naseer Ahmed were the legislators who threatened to resign.

Kolar now sees a fresh face emerge, benefiting from the rift between the two factions.
