Bengaluru: With the Lok Sabha polls just a couple of months away, Mysuru-Kodagu MP Pratap Simmha met JD(S) MLA and former Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy (HDK) at his farmhouse near Bidadi in Bengaluru Rural district on Friday and sought his blessings.
The meeting comes just days after former Minister and senior BJP leader V. Somanna met former PM H.D. Deve Gowda at Bengaluru, during which Somanna is said to have come out in support of Simmha, whose younger brother was named in an illegal tree-felling case at Belur in Hassan district, in which Pratap Simmha was targeted by Congress leaders.
