Nandan Neklani files nomination from South Bangalore

The grandige angadis (petty shops that sell puja accessories) of Gandhi Bazaar, the suave paved-and-asphalted roads and expressway to electronic city, the tree-lined Basavanagudi, the flyover-lined Vijayanagar, the BTM Layout homes of bureaucrats, it's all these areas that will decide who will win the Bangalore South Lok Sabha seat, which has been a BJP bastion since 1996. The seat is headed for an election that will define its personalities and its people.

The first whiff of why this constituency will become nationally important came when Infosys co-founder Nandan Nilekani started quietly visiting apartment complexes and colleges, meeting students, addressing seminars. It was a kind of soft-launch for his political ambitions - a kind of testing-the-waters-and-voter-sentiment.
