Bellary: The second list of candidates for 42 constituencies of JD(S) has been prepared and will be released almost on Wednesday, April 12, said Former Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy said, he further added that ticket distribution is being delayed by enemies and Shakunis in Hassan.

Hassan Constituency is not included in the second list. It is not final yet. Hassan’s confusion is different and my stand is that the decision should be made in the sentiments of the party workers of that constituency.

“I said a year and a half ago that I will defeat the BJP candidate from Hassan constituency by making an ordinary worker from the JDS party contest for that seat. But ticket distribution is getting delayed due to leaders working against party interests in Hassan. There are no Shakunis in our family. Revanna has not spoken to me about Hassan’s ticket till now,” said Kumaraswamy.

He further added that his position, which has already been stated a hundred times, will not change regarding Hassan’s ticket.

“I have been traveling across the state for four months for the assembly elections. I am working 17 hours a day to bring the party to power independently. But some are meddling in my good work. God should give them wisdom. I am aware of the dangers ahead,” he added.
