Madikeri: Former Minister Marianda C. Nanaiah, who is currently in the JD(S), seems to be heading towards the Congress, with Chief Minister Siddharamaiah evolving a plan to bring the senior JD(S) leader to Congress fold, in order to break BJP’s strong presence in Kodagu district.
CM Siddharamaiah, who is scheduled to visit Kodagu tomorrow (Jan.9) for ‘Sadhana Samavesh,’ is likely to meet M.C. Nanaiah and officially invite him to the Congress. Siddharamaiah, who was Finance Minister in the erstwhile Janata Dal Government in the 1990s, had maintained good relationship with M.C. Nanaiah who was Law Minister then.
