Mysuru: The members of the Mysuru zilla panchayat (ZP) appear to be watching the clock very closely as the hour for the elections to the post of the ZP president and vice-president draw nigh. The rationale of the JD(S) workers is that the party has ceded the mayor’s post in the Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) Council to the Congress, and the latter must now be magnanimous and give up the ZP president’s post to the JD(S). The BJP’s strength in the ZP is eight.Nandish admitted to opinions about allying with the Congress being divided within the party. But a lot of developments have taken place in the state since then both in Karnataka, and Mysuru,” Nandish said. “Personally, I would prefer an alliance with the Congress, since continuing to share power with the BJP might lead to confusion given that the Lok Sabha elections are close,” Nandish said.With 21 members in the 49-member house, Congress is the single largest party in the Mysuru ZP, while JD(S) has 20 members.
