Mangalore, 20 Mar  2014 : ‘I have filed my nomination for the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections after seeking the blessings of the people of the constituency. In the previous election, people of this constituency blessed me, and I hope they will do so this time too,’ said Nalin Kumar Kateel, BJP candidate of Mangalore constituency contesting in the upcoming LS polls.

Nalin was addressing the media persons after filing his nomination papers at Deputy Commissioner’s here on Thursday March 20.

‘In the last Lok Sabha elections I won by a margin of 40,000 votes. This time I am confident securing a greater majority of votes. Modi wave is everywhere. This election is between nationalists and pseudo nationalists,’ said Nalin.

 

 

When reporters asked if there was any reason for BJP not to take out a procession when filing nomination, he said, "Examinations are going on in schools and colleges, and we do not want to create disturbance or traffic inconvenience to students or the general public. After our victory we will hold grand celebrations."

Nalin further added that already 2 rounds of campaigning have been completed in Dakshina Kannada (DK) legislative assembly constituencies.

‘Elections are like exams. Sometimes they are easy and sometimes tough. This election is tough as well as easy,’ asserted Nalin

Prathapsimha Nayak, Monappa Bhandary, S Angara, Rukmaya Poojary were present during filing of the nomination.

DC A B Ibrahim accepted the nomination, in the presence of ADC Sadashiva Prabhu, and observer Shanteshwaraswamy.
