Mysuru: “Our Congress Government had created history by giving priority to education, health, food and shelter. However, the double-engine BJP Government had cheated the people by saying that they would bring ‘Acche Din’ by creating hatred, differences between castes and religions, said Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) President D. K. Shivakumar.
Speaking after inaugurating a massive convention organised by the Congress party as part of Prajadhvani Yatra at Muneshwarakaval Ground in Hunsur, he said that Hunsur has attracted the attention of the nation because of Devaraja Urs. H. P. Manjunath has created history as a three-time MLA with his memorable work in this Constituency. Recall that in the last by-election, we won with a huge majority. MLA Manjunath raised his voice in the House on behalf of the tobacco growers of the region. The BJP and the JD (S) did not question this,” he said.
“We took out the Bharat Jodo Yatra to unite the sentiments of the people of the country. Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra received an overwhelming response,” he said.
