The Congress has chosen Priyanka Jarkiholi, daughter of Minister Satish Jarkiholi, to fight the Lok Sabha polls from Chikkodi, Mrinal Hebbalkar, son of Minister Lakshmi Hebbalkar, from Belagavi and the former MLA Anjali Nimbalkar to be its nominee from the Uttara Kannada seat.
This arrangement of choosing candidates from powerful families to fight the polls seems to have quelled possible dissent among ticket aspirants in Belagavi and Uttara Kannada districts.
However, the Congress is likely to face some non-cooperation from the faction led by Member of Legislative Assembly Vijayanand Kashappanavar in Bagalkot.
