Former Chief Minister and Leader of Opposition in the Legislative Assembly Siddaramaiah on Thursday claimed that there was a “Congress wave” in the State and the party has a strong chance of coming to power in the State in 2023.
Addressing party workers at the Navsankalp Chintan Shibir here, he said the Congress victory in the recently held Council elections from the South Graduates’ constituency is an indication to the “growing acceptance of the party by the electorate”. The JD(S), which had won the seat in the last election, has been pushed to the third place in the election covering Mysuru, Mandya, Chamaajnagar and Hassan districts. Because of the “Congress wave”, the party won in the election., he argued.
The one-day Navsankalp Chintan Shibir has been organised by the Mysuru city and District Congress Committee.
