Aravind shared a tweet which said he is in touch with the Congress and wrote, “This account is continuously spreading misinformation, fabricated lies and misleading the people and media. My legal team will take appropriate legal action for spreading the false information. There is no such discussion happening with me. Distancing from BJP doesn’t arise at all.”
Both Congress and the BJP are yet to announce their candidate from the Mahadevapura constituency, which made headlines last year after many areas in the constituency had submerged in water due to heavy rains. Mahadevapura is also home to hundreds of multinational companies and large housing societies, which often get affected by Bengaluru’s civic apathy.
