S. Kumar Bangarappa and his younger brother S. Madhu Bangarappa, sons of former Chief Minister S. Bangarappa, are fighting against each other for Sorab, the constituency that the family has held in 12 of the 13 elections held since 1967.
While Mr. Kumar, 59, who is contesting on BJP ticket, takes the name of Prime Minister Narendra Modi often in his campaign speeches, Mr. Madhu, 57, argues that Mr. Modi has lost his charm and is no longer a vote-puller.
