Mysuru: In the home turf of Mysuru Lok Sabha segment, Congress strongman Siddharamaiah is facing an acid test on the lines of neighbouring Mandya where Chief Minister H.D. Kumaraswamy is waging a high-stake battle in favour of his son Nikhil Kumaraswamy, who is pitted against actress Sumalatha Ambarish.
The election fever is turning hotter in the Mysuru segment which has turned a BJP stronghold after the advent of sitting BJP MP and outspoken Pratap Simha, who is giving sleepless nights to Siddharamaiah. Siddharamaiah had convinced the party high command to nominate C.H. Vijayashankar, who shifted his base from BJP to Congress recently.
