Vijayanagara: The Congress Party is scared politically as it has forgotten when it was in power and now it is a sinking ship, said Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai.
Speaking after inaugurating ‘Jan Sankalp Yatra’ at Dr Puneet Rajkumar District Stadium here on Wednesday October 12, he said those who have secured the future of dalits, oppressed classes, students, women and youth are not scared but those who got involved in illegal activities are scared. “You shut Lokayukta and started the Anti-Corruption Bureau to cover up corruption during your tenure. Now the Lokayukta is strengthened and all your scams are coming out. All omissions and commissions committed by you will be enquired and punishment is sure for those who are guilty. The corruption of Congress is uncovered now.”
The CM said the Congress leaders are shattered by the roaring of Raja Huli on Tuesday October 11 and for this reason they target former CM B. S. Yediyurappa. They have made certain comments on the former CM but BDY will not care. “You tried to reign in on Yediyurappa and filed false cases to keep him away from power but he came back like a sphinx and became the CM again.”
Training guns on the Congress leaders, Bommai said that they have Prime Minister Narendra Modi who is equivalent to the dust of a tiny toe of former PM Jawaharlal Nehru. Is Nehru equivalent to the tiny toe of the Father of the Nation Mahatma Gandhi? The entire world has appreciated Modi for vaccinating 1.25 billion people during Covid – 19 pandemic and also donated vaccines to several nations. Several schemes like Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao, and Ujwala are launched for the welfare of people. The farmers got the Kisan Samman scheme. When the entire globe is gripped by recession, only India’s economy is growing stronger. Unfortunately, Siddaramaiah is suffering from forgetfulness, he rued.
He said the Former President of All India Congress Committee Rahul Gandhi is tired of attaching Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee President D. K. Shivakumar and Siddaramaiah. The concept of two nations was given to Mountbatten and Mohammed Ali Jinnah placed it. But it was the Congress Party, just for the sake of power, that neglected Gandhiji’s words and divided the nation. They broke the country into pieces then and now it is doing Bharath Jodo Yatra. It was former PM Indira Gandhi who supported Khalistan and the Congress Party supported LTTE in Tamil Nadu. Just for their selfishness, the Congress leaders did an unpardonable blunder, he alleged.
