Shettar extends ultimatum to BJP, says still hopeful of bagging Assembly poll ticket

His remarks came after a meeting with Union Minister Pralhad Joshi. His name did not figure in the first and second lists of candidates issued by the ruling party.

The BJP had reportedly advised him to stand down and not to seek a fresh term as MLA from the Hubli-Dharwad Central segment, following which his followers expressed their anguish against the party high command.

The BJP has yet to come clear on its choice of candidate from the Hubli-Dharwad Central segment.
