The two Congress functionaries are reportedly at odds over the proposed Constitution Day celebrations in the Mysuru city on Nov 26. Mahadevappa has been maintaining a distance from former chief minister Siddaramaiah and party activities after being denied a ministerial berth in the Shivakumar ministry, blaming the former CM for missing the bus. It may be recalled that Mahadevappa has kept away from several Congress party activities following his exclusion from the cabinet formed under DK Shivakumar ’s leadership, and has also distanced himself from Siddaramaiah. Yathindra is keen on hosting a state-level event in Mysuru While Mahadevappa is planning to organise a massive convention to mark the occasion.
