comments:
P.C. Mohan of Bharatiya Janata Party is ahead in campaigning.
Ex. C M HD Kumara Swamy can swing vokkaliga votes for his trusted lieutenant.
Congress voters are not happy with Dr. H.T. Sangliana, as he was with BJP and jumped to Congress at the last moment. Not a very popular figure with congress leaders and cadre.
Congress should have selected Jaffer Shaariff for Central, Krishna Byre Gowda for North and Sangliana for South. Some where some thing wrong. Another head ache for the parties is B S P. Definitely the B S P is a spoiler for the Congress and B J P. The delimitation will be advantage for B J P and certain effect to JD (S).
Bangalore Central will witness a excellent fight. The Congress leaders to spare time to be on campaigning trail and organising the meeting for the candidate will be key. With out leaders the congress candidate is dummy. There is much to be explained to public about his switching the parties. The dark and upset candidate is traveling on the Janata Dal Secular Bus.
