Mysuru: The ruling Congress is facing tough challenge from BJP and JD(S) in the forthcoming Assembly polls in Mysuru region and even the constituencies that is traditionally considered as safe places for Congress are emerging as a tough nut to crack for the party.
Take Narasimharaja Assembly constituency for example. It has a substantial concentration of Muslim votes and has for long remained a Congress fortress and a bastion of Aziz Sait family. But this time, the Congress is facing tough challenge not only from the Social Democratic Party of India (SDPI) which finished second during 2013 polls but also the Janata Dal (Secular) and the BJP that is looking at new strategies to break the dominance of the Congress and SDPI.
