The BJPs fixation on Varuna to the near-exclusion of other constituencies in the Mysuru region and the intensive campaigning by the top party honchos underscores the prominence the constituency has acquired in the 2023 elections slated for May 10.
The importance of Varuna stems from the fact that the outcome of the elections here will also determine the future of Congress in the State to a large extent as its fortunes are entwined considerably to the popularity and mass appeal of the former Chief Minister Siddaramaiah who is contesting from the constituency.
