Conspiracy to deprive me of ticket: Shobha Karandlaje
Belagavi: Union Minister Shobha Karandlaje has alleged that a conspiracy was being hatched in her constituency to deprive her of the party ticket in the Lok Sabha election
Speaking to presspersons in Belagavi on Saturday, Karandlaje said that in the Udupi-Chikkamagaluru constituency, several leaders were conspiring against her. “However when such opposition is witnessed, our leaders collect information about us. The opposition has benefitted me as they now know what I have done in my constituency. Otherwise, they would have just said that Shobha is doing a good job and also working for the party,” she said.
She said that the leaders were not collecting information on the reasons for the opposition to her candidature and this would help in bringing out her real work and personality. “I have full faith in the high command and I am sure that ticket will be issued based on work,” she said.
On reports about some incumbent MPs who might be denied tickets, she said that they had no such information. It was natural that aspirants sought tickets from the winning party. Party workers who had worked for the party for several years had the right to seek party ticket, she said.
