Bengaluru: Former chief minister HD Kumaraswamy after failing to secure his government in the state is now planning to field his son Nikhil Kumaraswamy for Krishnaraja Pete assembly constituency’s by-poll.
Narayana Gowda, who was the MLA from KR Pete constituency, was disqualified by former speaker Ramesh Kumar and now Congress and JDS are preparing for the by-poll.
KR Pete constituency was in the hold of JDS as Gowda won from here. But as he has been disqualified, some JDS workers and HD Kumaraswamy himself preparing the path for his son to contest the by-poll election.
It may be recalled that, in the recent Lok Sabha elections, his son Nikhil was defeated from Mandya despite having a stronghold with seven MLAs in the region.
