Elections have been called for the constituencies of Bagalkot and Davangere South following the passing of two senior Congress MLAs. H.Y. Meti, who represented Bagalkot, and Shamanur Shivashankarappa, the representative for Davangere South, both played significant roles in their constituencies and within the party.

H.Y. Meti was remembered for his contributions to local development and public welfare initiatives throughout his tenure, while Shamanur Shivashankarappa had a long political career marked by his engagement in various legislative activities and community services. The by-elections will provide an opportunity for constituents to elect new representatives to fill the vacant seats.

The Election Commission has yet to announce the specific dates for the polls, and preparations will be undertaken to ensure a fair and transparent electoral process. Voters in these constituencies will be encouraged to participate actively in selecting their new representatives.
