Bengaluru: “Our exclusive manifesto for BBMP will speak about our extensive plans for Brand Bengaluru, we will not field any candidate with a criminal record”, declared KPCC president Dr G. Parameshwar on Wednesday.
Parameshwar showcased the manifesto, highlighting the party’s vision for the city would be released in the run-up to BBMP polls. He also informed adding that the party would soon set up three committees – campaign committee, manifesto committee and elections committee – in a day or two after duly consulting with CM Siddaramaiah. “We have not finalised names for these committees yet,” he added.
Dr Parameshwar said the party would field candidates with clean background but it does not mean anyone facing a complaint will be rejected. “When we say candidates without criminal record, it means those who have been found guilty by any judicial or legal institution,” he added.
