Big promises

"I was assured a ticket from my ward, and in the new list it is changed to general," said M B Adinaryana, an SC candidate contesting from Hosahalli. "Now they are saying the list was only temporary."

The Other Side

A senior BJP leader, who is not happy with the way his party has handled the issue, said, "It is just a dummy list and they are doing this just to escape the contempt case. They are still trying to postpone the polls and the list is just to avert the legal stick."
P R Ramesh, Congress leader and former Mayor, who has waged an unrelenting legal war demanding the civic polls, said, "Ashoka's statement amounts to contempt of court and we will bring this to SC's notice."
