Mangalore, Mar 26: Congress leader and Lok Sabha candidate from Dakshina Kannada constituency B Janardhan Poojary on Wednesday March 26 filed his nomination at DC's office.

March 26 is the last day for filing nominations.

Poojary was accompanied by district incharge minister Ramanath Rai, health minister U T Khadar, and MLAs J R Lobo and Vasanth Bangera. A number of supporters also gathered outside the DC's office.

Addressing reporters after filing the nomination, Poojary said, "I have filed four sets of nominations. Our campaign has already begun and the party workers are full of enthusiasm. They are putting in great efforts as if they themselves have stood for elections.

"Our padayatra received good response and the work done by the chief minister and the government have appreciated and welcomed by the people. We need to build the nation on the foundation of communal harmony and not play divisive politics," he added.

Commenting on BJP, he said, "The BJP right from Kashmir to Kanyakumari has been asking votes in the name of Narendra Modi (PM candidate) and not in the party's name or of its candidates. This means the contest is between Modi and me. Other parties like JD(S) are not even in the race,"

Prior to filing the nomination, Poojary sought blessings at Kudroli Shree Gokarnanatheshwara Temple, Ullal Dargah and Milagres Church.

    Just by comparing himself with Modi's stature, this Bundle Badaayi Poojari is only trying to boost his ego. Let him do it if it gives him some kick, why should others object to it. Small children in every house wear the shoes of their Daddy and think that they have become the head of the family. It is a simple, childlike harmless play.

    How come there is no income details of Mr.Poojary? There was a long discussion regarding Mr. Kateel's income, as nothing was left to discuss lastly there was debate on his income, but in case of Mr. Poojary nobody is talking about his income. If I am not wrong some body written on this forum only, if a corporator can mint money how much Mr.Nalin has done. Now let me ask 1 simple question, pls inform how much Mr. Poojary has made money by being a minister of finance......??????? Ha ha ha, even allah cant save you people this time.....

    Poojary may be still thinking that by hugging minority people,getting blessings fom mosque,church will enhance his secular creditials and turn into votes.In fact these show offs were detrimental for his depleting popularity among majority class people.People very well understand that these sickular acts are only for vote banking.More and more does these things in public he is heading towards.......

    Mr. Shaan/Mangalore,
    Who on this earth told you that knowing Hindi and English makes someone a good leader? Hope your standard is not Raul Gandhi?
    With likes of Siddu, Sushma, Jaiteley, Nalin Kumar Kateel pales when it comes to oratory skills for sure. Most south indians politicians except Chiddu and probably our own George Fernandes are back bench cheerleaders. But as a representative and to raise issues related to his constituency he is still fine.
    Lalu with his Bihari language (some might call it dialect of Hindi but still) only sounds funny and his english is all time favorite joke on Youtube. Shall we leave the language criteria, please?

    Have you seen Mysore MP Vishwanath speaking in the parliament?
    Please understand that former MP Late Sri Ullal Srinivas Mallya who is popularly called as "father of DK dist" was an undergraduate and no MP had done even 5% of what he has contributed to Udupi/Mangalore.

    Dear Paddu,For your information there are no brahmin archaks in the temple.Those seen in the photos are referred to as "Shanthi"
    One shanthi in while dress who is offering prasada to Poojary is wearing "anga vasthra" worngly means "ulta" which not correct as per prevailing customs.Hope concerned will take note of the same.Me too expecting widow archaks will perform the pooja/paryers for Mr.Poojary but not to be seen anywhere in the photos.Poojary might not have accepted them as auspicious, as he is filing the nomination as a last chance.May God bless him.

    We all know of your good intentions and the amount of work you put in. It is a common inference that your 'tongue' spoils whatever you do. Pray to Goddess Saraswati and then 'start'.
