Bengaluru: The suspense over the naming of candidates for the upcoming Legislative Council polls (from Assembly) from the BJP came to an end with the party high command announcing former Minister C.T. Ravi, sitting MLC N. Ravikumar, and former Maratha Development Authority Chairman M.G. Muley as its candidates.
C.T. Ravi, a former Kannada and Culture Minister, had served as BJP National General Secretary before being dropped last year. The former Minister, a prominent Vokkaliga leader, had lost the 2023 Assembly polls from the Chikkamagaluru constituency.
