He also stated that Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis and Bengaluru South MP Tejasvi Surya are his idols, adding that he wishes to have a career trajectory like theirs.
Q. Is your ticket confirmed by the BJP leadership?
A.My work speaks for itselffrom what I have done over the past two years to what I am currently doing. The party has a report of my work. The leadership hasn't informed me yet whether I will get the ticket, as it's still early and the elections haven't been declared. However, we have understood where we went wrong during the bypolls in 2022, where our party lost to Congress. We have been working very hard to connect with voters, understand the ground-level issues, and are determined to bring the party back to power in this constituency.
Q. What do you think were the reasons for the bypoll defeat?
