National President finalizes the Candidates, not me – MP Nalin
Mangaluru: “Krishna J Palemar is a senior politician and he has been elected as MLA twice and was also the district minister in-charge. He has done good development work in the district when he was the minister and I respect him. This time Palemar was also an aspirant to contest the elections but the national president finalized the candidates and not me”, clarified MP Nalin Kumar Kateel to the media on April 21.
Krishna J Palemar had alleged that Yeddyurappa was interested in giving him the ticket but interference of MP Nalin Kumar had influenced the high command to change the name from the list.
MP Nalin further said, “When the ticket aspirants do not get the ticket it is natural that they feel sad and hurt. Feeling sad he has given the statement. I have not done any batting for anyone nor have influenced anyone in the ticket giving process. Moreover, I do not have the right to ask the ticket for anyone. I am an MP and also a party worker. I have sent all the names to the high command for the selection of the candidates. I will speak to Palemar and clear the confusion.”
When asked about another aspirant Satyajit Suratkal who is also disappointed for not getting the ticket, Nalin said, “All the BJP workers have worked for the party and all have the right to ask for the ticket. But when they do not get the ticket they get upset and they express their sadness. My duty is to take everyone together and work for the candidates to win the elections. I will convey this message to the state and national leaders. In future, they may get an opportunity to contest the elections.”
When asked whether there is a change in the distribution of the tickets, MP Nalin said, “I have no clue about it. I will surely bring all the developments to the notice of the senior leaders.”
Palekar has spoiled his chances when he was caught watching video on his mobile. Too late Sir. You can try JDS if you wish. They are looking for some candidates. Alternatively you may enjoy your Mysore Masala dosa at Ocean Pearl Sagar Ratna. Time well spent.
Yeah yeah, we hear you. Shah did not get your feedback before deciding surely?
Palemar should realise, it’s OK for a man to watch porn (it circumvents a ton of issues), but doing so has a place. And he should also know how to clear the browsing history and start a incognito browser session every time the pinata is full. That said, it does not prevent the ISP from knowing if needed but at least there won’t be any trace on your device. Good luck.
