Some followers of Congress leader Satish Jarkiholi have expressed their anger over the compromise formula forged by party leaders in the elections to the PLD Bank in Belagavi on Friday.
Parashuram Patil and Ayesha Sanadi said the Jarkiholi group had suffered a ‘setback’ in the elections as both the president and vice-president of the bank belonged to the Lakshmi Hebbalkar group.
Ms. Sanadi started shouting angrily at senior Congress leaders who were camping at the government guest house. She was taken away by women police constables.
Mr. Patil said though Mr. Satish Jarkiholi was consulted during the selection of candidates, the election of Ms. Hebbalkar's followers meant that the process was a ‘setback’ to the Jarkiholi group.
“In a few days, our leaders will show who they are and what they are capable of. They will throw a bomb in a few days, you wait and see,” he told presspersons.
