Congress’ Muniratna wins Rajarajeshwari Nagar seat by 41,162 votes

Bengaluru: Congress candidate Muniratna on Thursday won the Rajarajeshwari Nagar (RR Nagar) assembly constituency in Karnataka by 41,162 votes.

GH Ramachandra of JDS and Tulasi Muniraju Gowda of BJP were contesting in the Rajarajeshwari Nagar Constituency.

Earlier the election in the constituency was postponed due to reports of an alleged fake voter ID scam. About 746 voter ID cards were found from a flat in SLV Park View Apartment in Bengaluru’s Jalahalli locality by Election Commission (EC) officials on May 8.

Across 471 polling stations on May 28 about 53 percent voter turnout was recorded in RR Nagar.

Today’s result takes the total tally of Congress Mla’s to 75 in Karnataka assembly.
