The Congress is upbeat about its prospectus in the north Karnataka region considered as a bastion of the BJP following the joining of top BJP leaders — former Chief Minister Jagadish Shettar and former Deputy CM Laxman Savadi.
Amit Shah, who has already held a series of meetings in the north Karnataka region, has given clear directions to defeat Shettar. The BJP is worried about retaining the Lingayat vote bank as Shettar and Savadi are claiming humiliation by the BJP. North Karnataka is considered the Lingayat heartland.
