Mysore/Mysuru: Maintaining that the confusions over the party leadership in Chamundeshwari Assembly segment of the city that has arose since the past couple of years would end soon, State JD(S) Youth Wing President Nikhil Kumaraswamy said that the party top brass will decide on the party’s choice for the seat in the Assembly polls.

Addressing the party’s youth convention at a Community Hall in Hootagalli here on Tuesday, Nikhil, son of former CM H.D. Kumaraswamy, said that the party leaders need not feel that they are alone.
