Speculation is rife over State BJP president B.Y. Vijayendra’s meeting Chamarajanagar MP V. Srinivas Prasad in Mysuru on Thursday. Though Mr. Vijayendra and Mr. Prasad described it as courtesy call, the meeting is said to assume significance over the intense lobbying for BJP ticket from two sons-in-law of Mr. Prasad – Dr. Mohan and former MLA Harshavardhan.
Mr. Vijayendra said he calls on Mr. Prasad whenever he visits Mysuru. ‘’As he has already announced retirement from electoral politics, I sought suggestions from him on the candidates for the Chamarajanagar Lok Sabha constituency,” he added.
