Shivakumar, the Deputy Chief Minister and KPCC president, of indirectly assisting the BJP in the upcoming bypolls to two Karnataka Assembly seats. He claimed that some senior Congress leaders are aiding the BJP's campaign, including Mr. Shivakumar, who aims to become Chief Minister if the Congress loses the bypolls. Mr. Ashok also alleged that NSUI students were spreading misinformation about the BJP candidate and that police inaction against them is indicative of a bias towards the Congress. He demanded a fair election and urged voters to cast their ballots without fear.
