Siddaramaiah, the former chief minister of Karnataka, announced on Monday that he will not run in the Badami assembly elections.
Siddaramaiah made this announcement while he was holding a meeting of the Congress party workers in the farmhouse of Byatarayanapura MLA Krishna Byre Gowda in Chaudenahalli in Karnataka’s Kolar. “Contesting for the 2023 Assembly election at Badami has been ruled out. Varuna or Kolar, I will contest from wherever the high command would suggest me,” Siddaramaiah said adding that the nomination papers should be given by the Congress ‘High Command’ itself.
He further said, “The leaders here as well as in Kolar have suggested me to contest from Kolar promising me a victory there even if I campaign for two days. However, people from my previous constituency have asked me to contest from Badami, but the problem is that I can’t travel and attend to people’s issues due to my busy schedule, that’s why I am still in the waiting mode.”
Later in the meeting, he mentioned the meaning of MLA as the “representative of the people”.
