Pilla Munishamappa, JD (S) MLA from Devanahalli, who had submitted his resignation to Speaker K.B. Koliwad on Thursday, reversed his decision on Friday.
This followed assurance by party supremo H.D. Deve Gowda and State President H.D. Kumaraswamy that the entry of Nisarga Narayanaswamy, a realtor, into the party would not have any impact on his chances of getting a ticket from Devanahalli Assembly constituency.
“I was upset with the party. But our leaders have promised that my concerns would be addressed and I would not be denied the ticket,” said Mr. Munishamappa after withdrawing his resignation.
Mr. Kumaraswamy said that it was a case of miscommunication, which has been sorted out.
