Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has finally weighed and released the first list of candidates with only 2 days left for nomination papers for the Karnataka assembly elections. The High Command has given shock to some sitting MLAs in this list. Jagadish Shettar Resignation: made big statement before going Delhi.
Former CM Jagdish Shettar was also not given ticket in the first list. Disgruntled by this, the high command suddenly ordered Shettar to come to Delhi. Accordingly, Jagdish Shettar is leaving for Delhi today (April 12), before holding a press conference and expressing confidence that he will get the ticket.
Before going to Delhi, Jagdish Shettar, who spoke at a press conference in Hubli, said that national leaders have called me to Delhi. In this background I am going to Delhi. I am going to Delhi directly from Bangalore Airport because I have to go early. I worked for 2 years even though I did not get ministerial position. You don’t need a ministerial position to work. I worked even though I was not given any status.
He expressed confidence that he would get a ticket as he would get a positive response from the national leaders. I am in the party even though I don’t have any status. I organized the party without any authority. I have done so many things through our minister. Retire with dignity from politics. Do not go out of the party like this. 75-76 year olds are among those who got BJP ticket. Jagdish Shettar asked whether they should be called seniors and clarified that my decision will be based on the feelings of the national leaders.
Jagdish Shettar has contested from Hubli Central, this time the high command is thinking about giving ticket to a new face. But, Shettar, this time I will do it by competing. Therefore, in the first list of candidates, the candidate for the Hubli Central constituency has not been announced and has been reserved for now.
