Mining Baron Janardhan Reddy's brother gets ticket from BJP

The BJP’s Central Election Committee released its second list of candidates on Monday afternoon.

The highlight in this list of 82 names certainly has to be the inclusion of Somashekara Reddy, brother of the mining scam tainted Janardhan Reddy, who has got the ticket from Bellary City seat.

Though BJP President Amit Shah said that the BJP has nothing to do with Janardhan Reddy, the party will be using the might of the Reddy brothers to win seats in Ballari.
