With four candidates officials in the fray, the Rajya Sabha elections scheduled on June 19, is likely to be a unanimous one.
The Karnataka Legislative Assembly secretariat on Wednesday announced that Congress’ Mallikarjun Kharge, H D Deve Gowda of the JD(S), Eranna Kadadi and Ashok Gasti of the BJP were the only ‘validly-nominated’ candidates.
This was announced after all nominations were scrutinized. The nomination of independent Sangamesh Chikkanaragunda was rejected. June 12 is the last day for candidates to withdraw their nomination.
