The bypoll battle in Davanagere South is heating up day by day, with all political parties intensifying their election campaigns. However, for the ruling Congress party, discontent from the Muslim community has turned into a major headache.
Even though several community leaders, upset over the denial of a ticket to a Muslim candidate, were personally pacified by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar, the anger among some key Muslim leaders has not fully subsided.
As a result, Congress leaders are conducting a “march fast” rushing from one Muslim leader’s house to another in a bid to pacify them. Despite the hectic bypoll campaign schedule, senior Congress leaders are prioritising damage control with minority leaders.Generic Oneness Plane Glossy Metal Bangles Set for Women and Girls - (Pack of 48 Bangles) _Available in Many Colours
Every leader who arrives in Davanagere for campaigning is now making it a point to visit Muslim community leaders’ homes and hold discussions. There is growing anxiety within the party that the Muslim community might withhold support this time.
Adding to the tension, Minister Zameer Ahmed Khan has also not turned his attention towards Davanagere. Despite repeated demands from local leaders for Minister Zameer to campaign in the constituency, he has reportedly gone to Kerala and is staying away.Pakistan must realise the perpetrator cannot claim victimhood forever on terrorism
Zameer Ahmed Khan had publicly sworn to secure a ticket for the Muslim community. However, the ticket slipped away at the last moment, leading to speculation that he is upset and disappointed. This is cited as the reason why he is not focusing on the Davanagere South bypoll.
Today, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah is scheduled to campaign in the constituency. He is focusing heavily on rural areas where AHINDA votes are dominant.
He will conduct a massive roadshow in villages including Naganuru, Shiramagondanahalli, 6th Mile Stone, Hosabelavanuru, Turuchaghatta, and Hosanayakanahalli.Iran's Sharp and stern warning to Trump: "Not Eye for Eye, But Head for Eye!"
In the afternoon, the CM will address a public meeting at Hadadi village and seek votes in favour of Congress candidate Samarth Shamnur.
The Congress party is extremely worried that the ongoing discontent among the Muslim community could severely impact its vote bank.
