Pramoda Devi to deliberate the issue with Yaduveer

With the Lok Sabha elections approaching fast, the BJP is doing a lot of permutations and combinations in order to win maximum seats in Karnataka.

The buzz is that Yaduveer Wadiyar, the Maharaja of Mysore is being enticed to contest the Lok Sabha polls 2024 from Mysuru. The incumbent MP Pratap Simha might be junked or could be accommodated elsewhere.

Now as the talks of fielding Yaduveer gains more steam, let’s have a look at the advantages the BJP will get if the king does countenance their offer.

Advantage 1:

Yaduveer is a youngster and has a lot of sway over youngsters

Advantage 2:

Has earned a lot of praise for his pro-society work and has made a name for himself

Advantage 3:

The BJP can tom-tom that it has brought in the royal family into the election ring

Advantage 4:

His candidacy can boost BJP’s chances in the old Mysuru region

All depends on Pramoda Devi:

Pramoda Devi, who is his mother will have the last word. Sources tell us that the BJP high command has been in constant touch with her, trying to persuade her to allow him to contest. Presently, she is pilgrimaging Ayodhya and Kashi. She is slated to return to Mysuru on March 12 and deliberate the issue with Yaduveer.
