Like in any other election, this time also pro-Kannada organisation –– Kannada Chalavali Vatal Paksha, led by Vatal Nagaraj has called upon all the pro-Kannada organisations to come together and contest the elections to save Bangalore from ‘foreigners’.
Vatal Nagaraj hesitated to name the organisations but said all organisations which celebrate Rajyotsava every year will have to come forward.
Lok Satta is also entering the fray in the BBMP election. The party is planning to field at least six candidates and is likely to support many like-minded RWAs. At the initial phase, the party is fielding candidates at Vasanthanagar, Aramane Nagara, RR Nagar and Basavanagudi.
