Mangaluru: The pitched campaigns of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and BJP national president Amit Shah within the coast have decimated the Congress into oblivion in these parts, particularly in the key districts of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi. The BJP onslaught left 9 sitting MLAs lose by way of good margins. Of the 19 seats within the 3 coastal districts of Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Uttara Kannada, BJP has received 16.
While six sitting MLAs, together with a minister, misplaced in Dakshina Kannada, a minister and two sitting MLAs misplaced to BJP candidates in Udupi. The BJP reversed the 2013 trend of the Congress by way of winning 7-1 in Dakshina Kannada. Congress used to be only ready to carry on to Mangaluru City (U T Khader), a few of the eight constituencies. The BJP defeated the Congress Five-0 in Udupi district.
Khader used to be the one saving grace for Congress in Dakshina Kannada, protecting his seat for the fourth time in a row, with S Angara from Sullia winning the ST constituency for a document sixth time. All the sitting MLAs misplaced against newbies from the BJP: Vedavyas Kamath (Mangaluru City South) received against J R Lobo of Congress, Harish Poojnja (Belthangady) received against veteran Vasanth Bangera and Dr Bharath Shetty trounced sitting MLA Mohiudeen Bava by way of a big margin. BJP’s Sanjeev Matanduru who misplaced against Congress candidate Shakuntala Shetty in 2013, received against her in Puttur this time around, as did Umanath Kotian, against sitting MLA Abhayachandra Jain, by way of impressive margins.
The maximum telling blow got here in Udupi with sitting MLA and minister Pramod Madhwaraj, rated as the most efficient MLA within the state, losing to the BJP’s Raghupathi Bhat. The key constituency of Bhatkal also noticed Congress candidate Mankala Subba Vaidya, who had received as an Independent in 2013, lose against Sunil Naik of the BJP. However, Haliyal subsidized its sitting MLA and minister R V Deshpande against Sunil Hegde of the BJP. It is the eighth victory for Deshpande in Haliyal. He has been winning the constituency since 1983, and had misplaced to Sunil Hegde as soon as (in 2008). Former minister Vishweshwar Kageri of the BJP received the assembly election for a sixth time in a row from Sirsi. Earlier, he had received the election from Ankola constituency on 3 occasions, and with Tuesday’s victory he has received from Sirsi for the third time. In Yellapur assembly constituency, sitting MLA and Congress candidate Shivaram Hebbar scrapped through with a narrow margin on 1,483 votes.
Independent Srikar Prabhu who contested in Mangaluru City South and former police officer Anupama Shenoy who contested from Kaup constituency in Udupi district did not make an affect, getting less than 2,000 votes each and every.
Observers point out this to consolidation of pro-BJP votes, with BJP leaders time and again raising questions of safety in their staff and by way of highlighting the murders in their birthday party staff. P L Dharma, a professor of political science, believes that more anti-incumbency took place than used to be previously estimated, and than the campaigning by way of Amit Shah and Modi seems to have worked here. “It is not that chief minister Siddaramaih used to be no longer supported by way of the folk, however he didn't have the base to counter Modi. We have to include a unique language of inclusiveness. Perhaps the CM failed in this rely,’’ he said, including that the formative years desire a good future and don't want politicians to nit-pick on others faults, just like the Congress did.
