Raksha Ramaiah, son of senior Congress leader and former Minister M.R. Seetharam, has been declared president of the Karnataka Youth Congress. H.S. Manjunath has been declared vice-president of the youth wing.
Though Nalapad Haris, son of MLA N.A. Haris, emerged victorious in the elections, he has been declared “disqualified” by poll officials since a case against him is pending in the court, sources in the party said.
