Sumalatha’s picture removed from ‘Lankesh Rangamandira’ in Bidarakere after she supports BJP
Mandya: A picture of local MP Sumalatha was taken off the walls of the ‘Lankesh Rangamandira’ in Bidarakere village of Nagamangala taluk of the district, following the independent MP’s decision to support the BJP.
The theatre was constructed in Bidarakere with the financial aid of Kannada movie star Late Ambareesh, husband of Sumalatha, and named after renowned writer Lankesh. The pictures of several achievers of Karnataka, including Dr. Raj Kumar, Ambareesh, Lankesh and Sumalatha, were put up on the walls of the ‘Lankesh Rangamandira’.
The locals, however, removed the picture of Sumalatha on learning of her support to the BJP.
Columnist B Chandre Gowda said, “When Sumalatha won the Lok Sabha elections from Mandya as an independent candidate, she had garnered the maximum votes from Bidarakere village. Taking pride in her victory, the locals had even put up her picture on the walls of the ‘Lankesh Rangamandira’. Sumalatha’s unexpected decision to support the BJP, however, has shocked the people of Bidarekere. As a result, the locals decided to remove her picture.”
