Sarma addressed 11 public meetings, including in Koramangala, Byatarayanapura, Malleshwaram, Arsikere, Ujire (Belthangady), Madikeri, Gonikoppal (Virajpet), Kapu, Mulki (Moodabidri) and Lalbagh (Mangalore City North).

Of these, the BJP won Belthagandy (margin: 18,216 votes), Malleswaram (margin: 41,302 votes), Kapu (margin: 13,004 votes), Moodabidri (margin: 22,468 votes) and Mangalore City North (margin: 32,922 votes)
