Udupi: Gopal Poojary Resigns as Cong Dist President, to Contest from Byndoor

Daijiworld Media Network - Udupi (SM)

Udupi, Jan 11: The regional politicians seem to be steadily switching on to election mode. Stating clearly his intention to contest from Byndoor constituency in the upcoming assembly elections, Gopal Poojary has announced his resignation from the post of Congress Udupi district president.

Speaking to daijiworld Gopal Poojary said that he took the decision after holding discussions with Congress leader and Rajya Sabha MP Oscar Fernandes.

"The party does not allow a person to hold two posts simultaneously. Oscar Fernandes guided me in the matter and hence I have given my resignation as per his advice," he said.

"As the district president, I have to be in control of five constituencies, which is a difficult task. It was my desire to contest from Byndoor constituency and I am the only person from Congress who would be nominated from here. I am getting ready for the elections, and for campaigning, I need to be free from the political responsibilities of district president. Thereby, I took the decision last week," he said.

"I will continue to be district president till my resignation is accepted by the party high command. It should happen within a week," he said, adding that he has handed over his resignation papers to KPCC president Dr Parameshwar.

    He is non-corrupt i agree. But he does not do any work. He is uneducated and does not know how to interact with people. He is a dumb. He is always busy in attending functions, same as Haladi Shetty.

    Incapable politician. He was 3 time MLA for around 11 years. But nothing good he did. Byndoor city does not even has a bus stand, fish market, roads etc. But if an ordinary person invites him for marriage, he will be there on time. This is his capability.

    Many people from Byndoor-Kundapur works in his NEW SHANTHI SAGAR GROUP of hotels in Bangalore. This is advantage for him.

    He is non corrupt and people friendly. But he does not know to speak fluently.

    One reason for resigning is latest ZP/TP election result.

    This time he will be the winner with huge margin. If sitting MLA contests will loose even the security deposit.
