Mangaluru, April 22, 2018: All political parties have neglected Billawas by not giving them due representation while granting tickets in various constituencies in Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts, alleged M. Vedakumar, President of Bengaluru Billawa Association.
Considering the population of Billawas at least two candidates from the community ought to have been given tickets. The parties which make good use of the services of Billawas for organisational and protest purposes have failed to do justice while granting tickets, alleged Veda Kumar.
