Bangalore: Hassan MP and JD-S Suprem H.D DeveGowda has provided a new incentive to the voters of channapatna in the ensuing by-poll that if they voted JD-S candidate to win by a large majority, he would ask his family to conduct his last rites (after death) in channapatna only! Earlier voters were secretly presented with cash, gold, rice, liquor and so on , and now, death rites too.
The 3 by-polls have suddenly become prestigious issues for JD-S the regional party and other 2 national parties in the ring. Devegowda provided his new incentive like an insurance plan to get sim. Lim.Nagaraja elected, during a campaign speech at Abburudoddi.
