Mysore/Mysuru: Congress candidate Dr. D. Thimmaiah, who won the MLC elections from Mysuru-Chamarajanagar twin segment yesterday, attributed his victory to party leaders and elected representatives who toiled for his victory.
“This is my first election and I emerged victorious thanks to party leaders, elected representatives and party workers,” he said. Dr. Thimmaiah said that he entered politics after serving the healthcare sector for 35 years. He retired from Government service in 2003 and joined JD(S). He switched sides in 2012 as he did not get any party post and became a staunch follower of former CM Siddharamaiah.
