Mysore/Mysuru: Disappointed over the Congress High Command’s announcement of the candidature of sitting NR MLA Tanveer Sait again for the forthcoming Assembly polls, supporters of former Mayor Ayub Khan, who was a strong aspirant for the Congress ticket from NR, have urged their leader to contest as an Independent candidate.
Hundreds of supporters, who gathered in front of Ayub Khan’s residence at Udayagiri last evening, urged their leader to contest the polls as an Independent as he had contributed a lot for the development of the Constituency over the years. Maintaining that Ayub Khan has become popular in the Constituency through his welfare measures, they argued that there is no doubt that he would become a model Legislator if he gets elected.
