"JD(S) candidates won all the seven Assembly constituencies in Mandya during the previous elections. But, the district has not seen any development. There is a wave in favour of Congress in the state, including Mandya. Nobody can stop it".

Shivakumar also appealed to the people to give him an opportunity to come to power. As BJP will not win, the party workers should vote for Congress candidate Ramesh Bandisiddegowda, he added.
