Shetty has been a ticket aspirant in the previous three elections but has never been successful. This time around, he has been vocal about his desire to be selected as the party’s candidate for the upcoming election in Puttur. However, his sudden visit to Delhi has raised eyebrows among political observers.

There are longstanding differences between Hemanath Shetty and Shakuntala T Shetty, which have not subsided even during this election. It remains to be seen whether Hemanath Shetty’s sudden visit to Delhi is related to this rivalry or something else entirely.

However, some political analysts speculate that Shetty’s sudden visit to Delhi may be part of a broader strategy to address potential conflict among party members after the announcement of the ticket.

Hemanath Shetty arrived in Delhi on Friday evening and is scheduled to meet with party leaders on Saturday. The deadline for nomination papers is just eleven days away, and the tension among party members is palpable as they wait for the announcement of the ticket.
