Ahead of Lok Sabha elections, loss of Ambareesh, Jaffer Sharief leaves Karnataka Congress weak

Ambareesh, known as Mandyada Gandu meaning Mandya's Hero, left his battalion of fans devastated as he was the voice that spoke for people's concerns and needs. The Congress party may now plan to replace Ambareesh with actress-turned-politician Ramya, but whether she would fill the void left by the rebel star is a doubt on everybody's mind. Another Congress leader, Jaffer Sharief who was loved by all, has left an unexpected void in the party. With Lok Sabha elections fast approaching, are things going out of 'hand' for Congress in Karnataka?
