Mangaluru, Apr 23: C T Ravi, general secretary of the Karnataka state unit of unit of BJP has justified the party glorifying Prime Minister Narendra Modi during polls.

Responding to a question of media persons on senior RSS functionary Kalladkka Prabhakar Bhat decrying the BJP’s current strategy of seeking votes in the name of Modi, Mr Ravi said that his party never worshipped the PM.

He said that the BJP is not indulging in “vyakthi puje” (worshiping) but was only praising the “vyakthithva” of Mr. Modi.

The BJP is only projecting how the country has been recognised in the world; how it has been protected and how the country has progressed under the leadership of Mr. Modi, he said.

Mr Ravi said that BJP was hopeful of winning more than 23 of the 28 Lok Sabha seats in Karnataka.

“The party is hopeful of winning more than 10 seats in the elections conducted in the State on April 18. In the other phase being held on April 23, the party is confident of winning at least 13 of the 14 constituencies,” he said.

Criticising the Congress and the Janata Dal (Secular) leaders for staging a protest against the search carried out by Income Tax officials in some parts of the State recently, Mr. Ravi said that those two parties did not protest against the Pulwama attack.

Mr. Ravi said that such protests by the Congress and the Janata Dal(S) made it clear that they had made prior preparation for funding their election activities. That is why they took to the streets to protest against the action by the Income Tax Department, he added.

Modi is a COWARD who avoided open press conference for the last 5 years;

He is trying bring accused TERRORIST into paraliment; 

Stoops so low to market himself even when he meets his mother;

 

And BJP is talking about his "VYAKTITVA"??? Naachike illveno nimge?
