Belagavi, Aug 19: Janata Dal (Secular) National President H D Devegowda said that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has reduced Indian National Congress to being Siddaramaiah Congress and voice of senior leaders of the grand old party has been silenced during his regime in the state.

Speaking to reporters here on Saturday, Gowda said, minus Siddaramaiah there was no voice of Congress party or its senior leaders in the state and none was caring for the party veterans.

He denied commenting on Income Tax raids on Energy Minister D K Shivakumar and alleged that both Congress and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders were not making charges against each other due to the understanding between them. Siddaramaiah has not raised voice against BJP State President B S Yeddyurappa or failures of the party ruling at the centre, nor BJP has spoken against the state government. Both the national parties want to demolish JD(S), but we are prepared to take on both the parties.

Gowda said, Prime Minister Narendra Modi if makes a will could give interim relief to the state regarding the Mahadayi issue that could make drinking water available to the parched towns from North Karnataka region. “Myself raised the issue with Modi, but he chose to remain silent. As a prime minister myself had given the interim award to the state in the year 1996 despite running a 13-party coalition government while final award from Cauvery tribunal came in the year 2007.”

Prime minister should hold talks with the chief ministers concerned and come to the aid of the people, he stated. Gowda also decried the union government for not making funds available for the Mahamastabhisheka at Shravanbelagola despite Jain community voting for the BJP.

Gowdre, with all due respect try advising your party members to bring YOUR party to national level. One of your big mistake is to let go Siddaramiah from your party and now you are jealous.

 

When PM Mozee can make BJP a modi party with fake development, why shouldn't Siddu make a name for himself?

Tumakuru, Jan 2: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday slammed the Congress and its allies opposing the Citizenship Amendment Act, saying they are against giving relief to those who have been brutalised and victimised in Pakistan.

"Pakistan was founded on religious grounds due to which atrocities on minorities such as Hindus, Sikhs, Jains and Christians have increased. But Congress and its allies don't speak against Pakistan," he said at a function here.

He also said the Congress and its allies take out rallies and stage demonstrations against the efforts to prevent atrocities on religious lines and save women from sexual assaults.

Modi wondered why those opposed to the CAA were not speaking out against Pakistan's atrocities and asked what stopped them from doing so.

Strongly defending the CAA, he said it was adopted by Parliament in a historic move, but that the Congress and its allies and the ecosystem created by his party's rival were now against the very institution.

He said India cannot leave the Hindus, Christians and Sikhs apparently fleeing Pakistan to "their fate" and added it was the country's responsibility to protect them.

Modi pointed out that the efforts are especially to protect the Dalits and tribals in Pakistan.

The Prime Minister also pointed out that the abrogation of Article 370 was a step towards ending terrorism and uncertainty in Jammu and Kashmir.
