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.

Bareilly (UP), Nov 24: Three people died when their car fell into the Ramganga river from a partially constructed bridge here on Sunday, police said, adding that they suspect the driver was misled by its navigation system into taking the unsafe route.
The accident occurred around 10 am on the Khalpur-Dataganj road when the victims were travelling from Bareilly to Dataganj in the Badaun district, they said.
"Earlier this year, floods had caused the front portion of the bridge to collapse into the river, but this change had not been updated in the system," Circle Officer Ashutosh Shivam said.
The driver was using a navigation system and did not realise that the bridge was unsafe, driving the car off the damaged section, the police said.
There were no safety barriers or warning signs on the approach to the damaged bridge, leading to the fatal accident, Shivam said.
Upon receiving information, police teams from Faridpur, Bareilly and Dataganj police station rushed to the spot. They recovered the vehicle and the bodies from the river, Shivam added.
The circle officer said that bodies had been sent for post-mortem. Further investigation into the matter is underway.
