LS Election: Arguments On Development Issue Between BJP, Cong

Davanagere
The Davangere Lok Sabha Constituency is gearing up for elections, sparking a political contest between the BJP and Congress regarding development. BJP MLC Ravikumar has issued a challenge questioning the contributions made by caretaker Minister SS Mallikarjun to Davangere and called for an open discussion.
The Congress, feeling the pressure from the BJP, asserts that Mallikarjun spearheaded initiatives like the construction of Kundavada Lake and TV Station Lake, as well as water provision and overall development in Davangere. Congress candidate Dr. Prabha Mallikarjun retaliated against MLC Ravikumar’s challenge, questioning the contribution of the BJP’s MP to Davangere.
Dr. Prabha Mallikarjun campaigned in Komaranahalli near Melebennur in Harihara taluk of the district, engaging with voters and sampling local delicacies like mirchi mandakki. Meanwhile, BJP candidate Gayatri Siddeshwar criticized the absence of the district’s in-charge Minister and emphasized the need for broader engagement beyond the North-South constituency.
