BJP youth wing chief and current MP Tejasvi Surya, seeking re-election from prestigious Bengaluru South, is facing spirited challenge from Sowmya Reddy of Congress. The 41-year-old Sowmya, daughter of Minister Ramalinga Reddy, is a former MLA from Jayanagar in Bengaluru and lost the Assembly elections last year by a mere 16 votes. The seat is a BJP bastion since 1991.
