T BJP, Cong already active in Karnataka, Where is the BRS?

When the TRS became BRS, one major ViP presence was that of JDU boss and former chief minister HD Kumaraswamy. There was a talk of fighting the elections together in Karnataka. The BRS boss promised to chip in and do his bit during the Karnataka assembly elections. The question is – now that the Karnataka election notification has been released, where is the BRS.

Interestingly, the Congress has deputed former minister D Sridhar Reddy for Karnataka. Senior leaders like Uttam Kumar Reddy will also campaign in the areas inhabited by the Telugus. Telangana PCC chief Revanth Reddy too would campaign from April 25, when his ongoing padayatra comes to an end.

The BJP has made its all India vice-president DK Aruna the incharge of the party's campaign among the Telugus living in Karnataka. The party is focusing in districts like Kolar, Bellari , Koppal and Kalyana Karnataka. Key leaders like Bandi Sanjay, Kishan Reddy and Laxman too will campaign for the party.

But, the BRS, which announced amid much fanfare that it would play a key role in Karnataka elections, is totally silent. It has not sent any team to Karnataka nor did Kumaraswamy announce any association with the BRS. Ironically, the party boss is spending more time on Maharashtra and Andhra Pradesh, instead of Karnataka.
