Bengaluru: With campaigning for the May 12 Karnataka assembly polls nearing an end, the BJP and the Congress trade charges against each other. On Wednesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a full throttled attack on the Congress party, saying it is spreading lies anticipating fear of losing the polls.
He asked people to bid farewell to Congress in Karnataka. He also took potshots against Congress president Rahul Gandhi’s ‘PM in 2019 remarks’ saying that he is only eyeing the Prime Minister’s chair.
“How can someone just declare himself as the PM? This is simply nothing but arrogance. Will India accept someone immature like this” he asked. The Prime Minister listed out 6Cs responsible for the damaging the state. “Congress culture, communalism, casteism, corruption, crime and contract system have destroyed Karnataka.”
On the other hand, Rahul Gandhi accused Modi of making remarks that are “unbecoming of a PM.”
“We will never let the BJP-RSS tear apart the pluralistic fabric of our country,” the Congress president added.
BJP chief Amit Shah also conducted roadshows in Bengaluru and Tumkur districts.
Earlier, after discovery of a cache of voter identity cards at an apartment in Bengaluru’s Raja Rajeshwari Nagar constituency, the BJP and the Congress accused each other of playing “dirty politics.”The BJP demanded that the elections to the constituency must be immediately cancelled and that the flat owner must be arrested. It also called for a special probe in the incident. Alleging that the saffron party “enacted the drama in an apartment owned by their own leader,” the Congress met the Election Commission and submitted a memorandum of malpractices undertaken by the government with the help of central agencies including IT department.
