With the BBMP commissioner G. Kumar Naik issuing the notification for the elections to the civic body, the three major parties – the Bharatiya Janata Party, the Congress and the Janata Dal (Secular) – are now trying to finalise the list of candidates for the same.
Soon after the notification was issued, two candidates filed their nominations on Monday. Both nominations were filed by independent candidates.
While one was filed by Harish Naik in Uttarahalli ward, the other was filed by B.V. Ramesh in Jayanagar East ward, BBMP sources said.
