Sadappa Muniswamy (b 1975) is an Indian politician, a member of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). He was elected to the Lok Sabha, lower house of the Parliament of India, from Kolar in Karnataka in 2019 as a BJP candidate after causing massive upset by defeating congress heavyweight, former central minister and seven time member of parliament K. H. Muniyappa in his own bastion.[1][2] Muniswamy participated in the launch of a new train service from Kolar to Whitefield and during the occasion promised to take up the doubling work of railway line between Marikuppam and Bangarpet-Kolar-Bangarpet.[3]
In just a decade and half his political fortunes have skyrocketed from being a panchayat member to Member of Parliament. He was first elected in Kadugodi in Panchayat elections.[4] Later he became a Corporator from Kadugodi Ward in Bangalore after winning BBMP elections in 2015. S. Muniswamy had unsuccessfully contested mayoral election, but lost against Sampath Raju of Congress in 2018.[5]
