Bangalore, 25/12: Just four months to Assembly polls in Karnataka, former BJP leader and controversial mining baron Gali Janardhan Reddy on Sunday floated his own party — Kalyana Rajya Pragati Paksha — and announced that he will contest from the Gangavati constituency in assembly elections next year.
With this, he ended months of speculation about floating his own party. This is widely interpreted as Reddy’s second innings into politics. His announcement in Bengaluru came after an alleged snub from the BJP over his attempts to re-enter politics since 2018.
Addressing a press conference here at his plush flat in the city, Reddy said that this is his new political episode. “I am here to serve the people of Kalyana Karnataka region (Hyderabad-Karnataka region) and I will visit every household in the upcoming election,” he said.
