The Congress campaign for Mysuru Lok Sabha constituency intensified with the party candidate M. Lakshman reaching out to professional groups like advocates and industrial workers, on Thursday.
Mr. Lakshman also positioned himself as a commoner and pitched it as his USP because he would be available to the public 24x7 to redress their grievances. This by implication meant that his nearest rival Yaduveer Krishnadatta Chamaraja Wadiyar being from a royal family, may not be easily accessible, though Mr. Lakshman desisted from mentioning any names.
Speaking to members of the Mysuru Bar Association Mr. Lakshman said he has a vision for Mysuru and he was capable of representing the constituency as well as the State and would not be among those MPs who attend the Parliament sessions but never raise issues germane to the public.
