Shivamogga: K.S. Eshwarappa, the disgruntled senior BJP leader and former DyCM, is contesting the LS elections from Shimoga Constituency as an independent candidate, showing no signs of relent.
Irked over the denial of ticket to his son K.E. Kanthesh from Haveri LS seat, which is going to election in 2nd phase in the State on May 7, Eshwarappa who is miffed over former CM B.S. Yediyurappa and BJP top brass, has jumped into the poll arena against BJP MP B.Y. Raghavendra (elder son of Yediyurappa) who is also seeking re-election from Shimoga.
