Win shows people's desire for change
November 25, 2024
|The New Indian Express Bengaluru
Congress' Yasir Ahmed Khan Pathan created a history of sorts by winning the Shiggaon Assembly constituency for the Grand Old Party after almost 25 years in the recent bypoll.
Congress' focused efforts, along with the guarantee schemes of the Siddaramaiah-led government, helped Pathan win the seat by defeating BJP's Bharat Bommai. Pathan shared his thoughts with The New Indian Express on the people's verdict. Excerpts:
How do you interpret the bypoll result?
The verdict clearly signals a desire for change. The Congress last won Shiggaon in 1994. The people of the constituency were frustrated with the repeated election of the same candidate. By casting their vote in favour of Congress, people have shown their support for our leadership and CM Siddaramaiah's government.
What were the key factors that led to your victory?
