1. Congress is expected to release its Lok Sabha candidates’ list today. The party has so far announced only seven seats for Karnataka. More names were cleared yesterday, which included names of several relatives of ministers and leaders.
2. Announcement of some more BJP seats is expected today. The names were stuck owing to negotiation over Kolar seat between the saffron party and its ally Janata Dal (Secular). It had also led to some differences within the alliance with JD(S) leader and former Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy airing his unhappiness.
3. H.D. Kumaraswamy, admitted in a hospital in Chennai, will undergo a heart procedure tomorrow.
