The ongoing feud between BJP leaders and Arun Kumar Puthila has escalated, with Puttila Parivar president Prasanna Kumar Marta announcing that Arun Kumar Puthila will contest in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
Marta revealed in a press conference that talks had been held with BJP leaders such as Yeddiyurappa, Santhosh, Vijayendra, Satish Kumpala, and State Organizing Secretary Rajesh, with positive responses received. However, no decision has been made yet by the BJP leaders.
Marta emphasized that despite their demands for Puthila to be appointed as Mandal President, no action was taken, leading to the decision for Puttila to contest in the elections.
Puthila Parivar, known for its active response to people’s issues in Puttur taluk, is set to expand its services. They announced plans to launch an ambulance service from their health unit in Bettampady division on March 3, followed by efforts to strengthen the organization across the district.
Additionally, the organization aims to expand its presence statewide, with plans to contest in all future elections in the district and extend its service organization to the entire state.
