Bengaluru: You must choose Congress’ candidate in order to save democracy from danger, said KPCC working president Saleem Ahamed.
He was addressing the gathering at an election rally for party candidate Praveen Peter, who is contesting the Bengaluru Teachers’ Constituency in the upcoming biennial MLC election, in the Basavanagudi legislative constituency.
“India is recognised on the world stage for its unity in diversity and secularism, but now this fabric of democracy is facing a serious threat from the fundamental mindset of the government,” he added.
MLC B K Hariprasad, who was also present, said that the educated community has the responsibility to take serious decisions when the nations’ sovereignty and democracy are at stake. Educated people need to unite and exercise their franchise in the upcoming election, he added.
Former Basavanagudi MLA K Chandrashekar, DCC president Krishnappa, and other leaders were present.
