Udupi: The Udupi District Congress staged a protest in front of the Martyrs’ Memorial in Ajjarkadu on Sunday March 26 against the disqualification of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi from the Membership of Parliament.
Congress workers, who had gathered in hundreds, shouted slogans like “40 per cent defiance of the Government, defiance of Chief Minister Bommai and defiance of the liar Modi.”
Speaking on the occasion, District President Ashok Kodavoor said, “After Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra, the BJP is scared. He has been disqualified from the post of Member of Parliament with the intention of suppressing his voice at any cost. There is a conspiracy behind his disqualification within 24 hours of the Court’s verdict. We condemn this,” he said.
