People from Bellary, Koppal, Haveri, Raichur, Chitradurga and Davangere districts are planned to be brought to Gadag for the proposed convention.

Sriramulu has already applied for registration of his new party, by opting for either ‘BSR’ or ‘Swabhimani Party’. He expects to get the nod from New Delhi for one of these names soon, and plans to complete registration process before the convention.

Sources claim that many former ministers and MLAs has evinced interest in joining the new outfit floated by Sriramulu. But Sriramulu has not begun admitting anyone.
