With assembly elections fast approaching in poll-bound Karnataka, the leaders across party lines are facing the heat of voters over the lack of development works.

Nikhil Kumaraswamy, son of Former CM and JD(S) leader H. D. Kumaraswamy was cornered by women voters during his campaign trail in the Ramanagara assembly constituency. Actor-turned-politician Nikhil Kumaraswamy will be contesting from Ramanagara where his mother Anita Kumaraswamy is the present MLA.

In a video that went viral, women voters were heard saying, “Your mother performed puja but still there is no proper drinking water facility, streamline underground drainage facilities and others. We are saying to all parties that we won’t be voting this time”.

In December Anitha announced Nikhil as her successor in the constituency at the regional party’s Pancha Ratna Yatra in Ramanagara. While making the announcement, Anitha said she would give up her constituency for her son.

In another viral video, BJP MLA in Vijayapura district was seen facing the ire of voters over poor infrastructure causing major embarrassment for the BJP.
