Kumaraswamy, who is holding reins in the party, had declared that national parties will have to come to his doorstep after the elections.Kumaraswamy had also claimed that national leaders of Congress, BJP are already in touch with him for alliance.However, as the poll dates are declared, the issue of giving tickets to Bhavani Revanna still remains a contentious issue in the Gowda family. Even as Kumaraswamy is refusing to give a ticket to Bhavani Revanna his elder brother and former minister H.D. Revanna's wife, the Revanna family is adamant on it.The BJP has managed to wrestle the Hassan constituency, considered as a bastion of JD(S) in the last Assembly elections.
