The victory of BJP in Sira and RR Nagar, comes as booster for the BJP ahead of panchayat polls. The party has managed to win the Chamarajanagar Lok Sabha seat in the Congress area and creates a record by winning Hassan, voice of JD(S) supremo H D Deve Gowda. 

BJP has already started preparations for panchayat polls in Chikkabalapur, Kolar and Ramanagara districts to put a halt to Congress and JD(S) dominance.6,022 village panchayats with 94,775 members, 176 taluk panchayats with 3,903 members and zilla panchayats with 1,083 members have been targeted. BJP leader Shivanna recalls when BJP workers were not allowed to even enter JDS dominated villages. But the situation has changed, particularly after the BJP won seats in Vokklaiga-dominated constituencies, he added.

The PM’s Jan Dhan and Kisan Sanman yojanas, and CM B S Yediyurappa’s decision to revive the sugar factory are the main factors that enabled the BJP to create political space in Mandya district, he said. BJP has now a sizeable number of Vokkaliga leaders in comparision to the Lingayat leaders, including D V Sadananda Gowda, R Ashoka, Dr C N Ashwath Narayan, S T Somashekar,  Dr K Sudhakar, Narayana Gowda and MP Prathap Simha, said party leader Nanjunde Gowda.
