Mandya Lok Sabha Election  

One of the Kannada daily newspapers had claimed that chief minister’s son Nikhil Kumaraswamy had created ruckus at Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel in Mysuru, Karnataka, while in an inebriated state after getting defeated in Mandya Lok Sabha election.

Finding your name in the voters list is not easy in every election and many of them miss the opportunity to vote. A Good Samaritan came to voters help in Mandya as he camped outside Chamundi Layout and assisted those who found their names missing in the electoral list as Karnataka voted in Lok Sabha election on Thursday
 

Sumalatha Ambareesh, the wife of late actor-politician Ambareesh, who is contesting from Mandya Lok Sabha constituency, has garnered support across Karnataka. A woman farmer named Jayashri Guran has travelled to Mandya to extend her support

While BJP-supported independent candidate Sumalatha was holding her rally in Mandya, Congress members were seen waving their party flags, enraging  their senior leaders

Even though Congress has left the Mandya seat for the Janata Dal (Secular), Congress workers there are not ready to support the JD(S). Instead, they are favouring Ambareesh's wife Sumalatha's candidature.
