CM Siddaramiah will now contest from two constituencies- Chamundeshwari and Badami

Here comes a new twist ahead of crucial Karnataka polls. It has been confirmed that CM Siddaramiah will now contest from two constituencies- Chamundeshwari and Badami and BJP is also likely to suggest BS Yeddyurappa to contest from Badami against Siddaramaiah. The BJP source says that Yeddyurappa is opposed to the idea of contesting from two constituencies as it would be difficult for him to campaign in other districts. BJP insiders say that if Yeddyurappa contests from Badami, he can successfully break the Congress’ vote bank and may even be able to defeat Siddaramaiah. BJP insiders say that the party would take a call on BS Yeddyurappa’s candidature from Badami only if Siddaramaiah’s candidature is confirmed.
