BJP honours rank and file while Congress, JD(S) honour family loyalists
The BJP has given tickets to two lesser-known names for the Rajya Sabha elections, while the Congress and JD(S) have opted again for dynasty politics
While the Karnataka BJP unit had met under the chairmanship of chief minister BS Yediyurappa to finalise the names for Rajya Sabha and even recommended three names - Ramesh Katti, Prakash Shetty and Prabhakar Kore, the high command has sprung a surprise by not accepting any of these three names. In fact, it has chosen to go with two unheard names. They are Eranna Kadadi, a former president of the Belgaum rural unit of the party and Ashok Jasti, a party leader who hails from Raichur district.
