Hubballi, Nov 3 (UNI) Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar on Friday said the Congress party, in the next five days, will take a final decision on the candidates for Lok Sabha elections in the state.
Speaking to reporters here, Shivakumar said all the ministers, who conducted the election survey in more than 75 per cent of the constituencies in the state, are expected to submit their reports any time soon.
“Necessary inputs and suggestions have also been received from senior party leaders in this regard which would help in releasing the list of the candidates,” he said.
