Kundapur: BJP has given reservations to all communities. The Congress is saying that if it comes to power, it will withdraw the reservation announced by the BJP, said BJP National President J. P. Nadda and added that reservation will be threatened if Congress is voted for.
Campaigning for Kundapur BJP candidate Kiran Kumar Kodgi, Nadda, said “Our aim is to provide reservation facilities to all economically backward communities.” He said that the people should decide whether to empower the anti-reservation Congress.
He said Siddaramaiah talks about corruption. Many scams, including the Arkavati scam, PSI recruitment scam, and teacher recruitment scam took place during Siddaramaiah’s Government. KPCC President D. K. Shivakumar, Sonia Gandhi, and Rahul Gandhi are also out on bail. Congress is mired in corruption from top to bottom. Such people are accusing us of corruption, he said and requested that they vote for the BJP and send the Congressmen home.
“India, which was in the 11th position in the global economy, has moved to the 5th position after Narendra Modi became the Prime Minister. The Central Government has given Rs. 1 lakh crore to Karnataka for the construction of national highways in Karnataka. The largest industrial corridor in the country is being built in Tumakuru. Helicopters will be manufactured here. The Ayushman Bharat Yojana, which provides health insurance up to Rs. 5 lakh per year to the poor, has been implemented, he said. He added that the double-engine Government is the reason why Karnataka became number one in all fields.
Former CM H. D. Kumaraswamy was the Chief Minister, and when asked to give the details of farmers for the Kisan Samman scheme, they gave only the details of 17 farmers. When Yediyurappa became the Chief Minister after toppling that government, he gave a list of 54 lakh farmers. Now the money is going to each farmer’s account, he said and explained that this is proof of the benefit of having a double-engine government.
Thanking Haladi Srinivasa Shetty for announcing his retirement and giving an opportunity to Kiran Kumar Kodgi, Nadda said Kiran Kumar Kodgi has been in the party for a long time and has been serving people. The people of Kundapur should stand for development, he appealed.
