Bharathinagar: As the days for the general election counting are inching closer, the high voltage Mandya Lok Sabha constituency is building curiosity on who will win the votes-Congress-Janata Dal (S) State Coalition candidate Nikhil Kumaraswamy or independent candidate Sumalatha Ambareesh.
While the videos of flower falling from a deity’s idol on Sumalatha has been made viral on social media platforms depicting it as god’s blessing her with victory, on Wednesday, May 15, the JDS supporters have released a video in which a Basava (the holy cow) has brought forward its leg before Nikhil Kumaraswamy. It is a folk belief that it is indicative of a sure shot victory.
This apart, Sri Aadi Honnayakanahalli Manteswamy Basappana of Honnayakanahalli Matt has predicted the victory of Nikhil Kumaraswamy.
The JDS partyworkers opine that these are divine signs of Nikhil’s video and the video on this too has gone viral.
This apart, the Basavappa devotees have begun betting on Nikhil’s win on a large scale.
