A food delivery executive for Zomato Meghna Das, is one among candidates battling the upcoming Mangaluru City Corporation (MCC) election from the Mannagudda ward. 


Meghana started her career as a technical executive and later became a food delivery agent for Zomato. She has now switched her fields and stepped into politics.


Speaking to news agency, ANI, she said, "I had fallen off due to bad roads and there are safety issues also. I was convinced that since I travel a lot every day and know the problems closely, I can serve people."

 

"I am contesting from Mannagudda ward (Ward no. 28) on Congress party ticket. I was not expecting to get it, but by God's grace it happened. I have seen a lot of problems in my ward, I just want it to be the best," she added. 

According to reports, she had filed her nomination on October 31, as a Congress candidate and started an election campaign with her supporters in the ward.

She has taken a break from her duties and intensified her election campaing. She is also confident of winning the election.
