Recently, Vijayanagara MLA Anand Singh tendered his resignation from BJP after the controversy over Tipu Jayanti celebrations where the opposition party had opposed the decision of state government. Speaking on this occasion, Singh expressed that, Congress will sweep all the nine assembly segments of Ballari district and would once against retain Karnataka. During the tenure of Jagadish Shettar, Singh was entrusted with the charge of Tourism minister. He was the in-charge minister of Ballari district.
