The by-elections will take place in Sandur, Channapatna and Shiggaon, which were necessitated by the resignation of E Tukaram, Union Minister H D Kumaraswamy and former Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai from the Karnataka assembly after they won the Lok Sabha elections.
None of the parties have finalised their candidates for the three constituencies though in Channapatna, a JD(S) candidate is likely to be fielded.
Speculations are rife that the JD(S) second-in-command Kumaraswamy, who had resigned as Channapatna MLA, may field his son Nikhil Kumaraswamy.
