I will not contest the Lok Sabha election from Hassan, said former Prime Minister HD Deve Gowda on Wednesday. Through this, he has given green signal for his grandson Prajwal Revanna to contest from Hassan. I have started touring the state for the Lok Sabha elections, Gowda said. He was speaking at Mudalahippe , Holenarasipur in Karnataka. He also said that seat-sharing between the JD(S) and Congress has not been finalised. Rahul Gandhi is busy campaigning in Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and Odisha. So another meeting will be held on March 15 and seat-sharing will be finalised on that day, he said.
