Second list: Congress prefers young Rizwan to Sharief, Moily in


Daijiworld Media Network (SHS)

New Delhi, Mar 13: The Congress party on Thursday March 13 released the much anticipated second list of candidates, putting to rest most of the speculation surrounding the candidature of senior leaders.

Union minister and sitting MP of Chikkaballapur Dr M Veerappa Moily who was dropped in the first list of candidates has found a place in the second list. It had earlier been speculated that considering the tough competition in this constituency, Moily had been reluctant to contest here and that actor-turned-politician Chiranjeevi might take his place.


Rizwan, Moily

Another name in the list is that of former union minister Janardhan Poojary, who won the primary from Dakshina Kannada constituency.

AICC vice-president Rahul Gandhi’s emphasis on youth and women empowerment seems to have played a major role in deciding the second list. Of the 71 names in the list, one-third of the candidates are youths and 11 are women. In a bid to induct new faces, veteran leader Jaffer Sharief lost the Bangalore Central ticket to Rizwan Arshad.


The second list of candidates from Karnataka is as follows:

Veerappa Moily - Chikkaballapur
Janardhan Poojary - Dakshina Kannada
Rizwan Arshad - Bangalore Central
B V Vinayak - Raichur
Chandrappa - Chitradurga
Prakash Hukkeri - Chikkodi
Lakshmi Hebbalkar - Belgaum
Basavaraj Hitnal - Koppal
Manjunath Bhandari - Shimoga
Ajay Kumar Saranayak - Bagalkot

    No, Petroleum minister Moily cannot increase price of Natural Gas...Union Cabinet increased it on the basis of recommendation of Rangarajan Committee...You know what were terms of reference of this Committee???

    Do you know who is Somashekar and what is his Committee and its interim report and final report? Do you agree with the report??

    Then why are you tom toming about non-political entities involved it price increase of gas???

    Conclusion: Half knowledge is more dangerous than no knowledge.

    Cong has fielded Manju Bhandary from Shimoga and BJP has fielded Naked Pratap Simha from Mysore. Both these decisions are suicidal. Both are going to lose badly. They may get a 3rd or 4th place in the election.

    Langool, why are you so upset with Moily? He is a seasoned politician and not too bad compared to other politicians of DK or Karnataka. He has done several good things like CET against pai's and got opportunity to poor/deserving students to study BE and MBBS! That is a great achievement! Why kokkefy him all the time unless he has done something bad to you!

    Personally, I have nothing with mOily.

    I don't like him paying more than double price for Indian natural gas to Ambani than sold in US,(US current gas retail price is USD 3.75 per MMBTU, we are currently paying Ambani USD 4.2 and Moily agreed to pay USD 8.4 from April first) thus causing a loss of 54,000 Crores per year to Government of India.

    Do you think any Central Minister unless Quid Pro Quo will pay double US retail price, thus making an illegal profit for Mukesh Ambani 54,000 crore every year.

    You and people like you might say, the Government will not increase subsidy and see that people won't be paying from their pocket.

    Then this amount is paid by Government taxpayers money and it is given to Mukesh Ambani by some corrupt and crooked politicians...

    Congress and BJP know everything about this scandal,,, nobody other than AAP talk about it...if you have brains guess why!!!

    Now you know why I am against him,,, hope you are ashamed by your comments...

    Why Congress wants to commit Harakiri in Shivmoga by fielding very weak candidate like Manjunath Bhandari? Is there any secrete understanding between JDS and Cong to defeat Yaddy ? Manjunath Bhandary is from Mangalore who is the promoter of Eng College near Mangalore. This Eng College is having unaccounted investment from some bigwigs of Congress party like Kharge. Manjunath being a Bunt he is not even having any Caste base in Shimoga. Nor he has done any social work in Shimoga. So on what criteria Bhandary is given ticket in Shimoga ?
