Mysuru: In the wake of reports that Chief Minister Siddharamaiah is finding it difficult in Chamundeshwari Constituency, a group of veteran Vokkaliga leaders from the Constituency have thrown its weight behind the Chief Minister.
Addressing a press meet here yesterday, Mavinahalli Siddegowda, who had unsuccessfully contested from the constituency in 1989, said that Siddharamaiah had won five times out of seven elections and so, the rumours spread by vested interests that Vokkaligas would not vote for the Congress, especially for Siddharamaiah, are malicious.
