The Congress means corruption, misrule, nepotism, divide & rule policy, injustice, corruption, and iniquity. Hence, it must be removed from the roots permanently, said Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai.

Speaking at the campaign for Yalahanka BJP candidate S.R.Vishwanath in Yalahanka and Rajankunte as part of the ‘Jayavahini’ Yatra on Sunday, he said the BJP has launched the ‘Jayavahini’ yatra from Yalahanka which has the distinction of electing the BJP candidate by the biggest margin and Bengaluru’s Number one constituency. This is because of Vishwanath who has been serving the people for the last 15 years.

The CM said the Siddaramaiah’s regime between 2013 and 2018 witnessed various scandals including police recruitment, question paper leakage, teachers recruitment, and the redo of 843 acres worth Rs 8000 crore. The then CM Siddaramaiah looted the entire state including Bengaluru City. Removal of the Congress Party is like removal of the corruption.

Bommai said the Congress Party has sown the seeds of hate in the society to divide the people based on caste and religion and tried to break the religion. The guarantee card given by the Congress Party is like a lifeless visiting card and it’s useless. It is guaranteed only up to the election and useless after the election. “I am launching this yatra from the land of Nada Prabhu Kempegowda to remove the Congress Party from the roots”.

The CM said the BJP government believes in seeing all the communities equally like Nadaprabhu Kempegowda, based on the principles of 12th-century social reformer Basavanna, protecting the poor and downtrodden as dreamt by Dr. B.R. Ambedkar and implementing Dasavani of Kanakadasaru. The incumbent government has given internal reservation and hiked the quota for the backward classes. The work of the double-engine governments must be taken to every house. Residents of Yalahanka might have taken the benefit of either the state or the union governments. The people of Yalahanka must elect Vishwanath by a margin of over one lakh votes in the coming Assembly election.

He said most of the facilities available in Bengaluru have been made available in Rajanakunte and let the Congress show at least 10 percent of the work done by Vishwanath. Another political party, Janata Dal (Secular) is waiting to come to power if no party failed to get the simple majority. The JDS is a party of dynastic and nepotism and the welfare of Karnataka is possible only from the BJP. No force can prevent the BJP from getting an absolute majority in the Assembly polls to be held on May 10.

Bommai said the sitting MLA Vishwanath has done remarkable development in the constituency by providing all basic amenities and he saved people from floods at midnight. As chairman of BDA, he did the job of ten ministers by providing facilities for old and new layouts. The MLA has done impossible things and improved all gram panchayats like cities. The BJP will come back to power with 130 seats and form the next government.
