Reacting to allegations that the Congress’ claim to come back to power is based on a fake survey, KPCC president D.K. Shivakumar on Sunday said that more than the survey, the successive victories in recent elections show that the Congres is gaining in strength.
“The BJP leaders are talking that Congress will come to power. We have conducted a survey that showed that situation is favourable to the party. Even if surveys are kept aside, we have done well in Council elections where the party had lost in Mandya and Tumakuru when we were in power,” he told presspersons here.
He said: “We have to use the opportunity now. We have won graduates and teachers constituencies that we had not won. I will not say surveys are accurate always, but Council results show that we have done well.”
