Three-term MLA from Udupi K. Raghupathi Bhat said that BJP leaders should introspect whether tickets to contest the Karnataka Legislative Council and Lok Sabha elections have been issued to deserving candidates.
On May 15, the former MLA opened his election office in his home. Mr. Bhat will contest as ‘rebel’ candidate in the elections to the Legislative Council from South West Graduates’ constituency.
Addressing mediapersons at his residence in Udupi, Mr. Bhat said that BJP leaders should ask themselves whether tickets have been issued to those workers who worked hard for the party and to those recommended by party workers.
