Mysuru, Aug 11: The Bharatiya Janata Party is controlling a section of the media and playing negative politics with the help of those media, according to Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee working president Dinesh Gundu Rao.

Addressing the party workers at the district committee meeting, he said, a large number of people are in favour of the Congress party according to a survey and thus, the BJP leaders are under fear of a defeat in the upcoming Assembly elections.

“The BJP leaders are following negative politics due to fear and a few media organisation are supporting them. The BJP has released a video of an IT raid conducted on a office in New Delhi in 2012, projecting it to be the video of a raid conducted on the premises of Energy Minister D K Shivakumar. A few TV channels are repeatedly broadcasting the video,” he pointed out.

“The BJP has taken to the social media in a big way to spread false news against the Congress party. The Congress party workers should also become active in the social media to give a fitting reply to the BJP,” he said.

Dinesh said, “The Union government has failed to provide necessary support to the state government and has failed to release the funds. All India Congress Committee vice-president Rahul Gandhi will take part in a party’s conference in Bengaluru on August 16.”

Bengaluru, May 2: Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president DK Shivakumar has urged Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa to help the farmers in sending their produce to a market here amid the coronavirus lockdown.

The Congress leader made the appeal to the Chief Minister after listening to the farmers' issues while visiting KR Puram market on Friday.

Farmers told Shivakumar that the police are stopping their vehicles going towards the market despite the order passed by the Centre permitting the movement of vehicles carrying essential commodities during the lockdown.

"I have received calls from more than 100 farmers in the past few days. Every day, farmers from Kolar, Chikballapur, Malur and many other places come to KR Puram market to sell their agricultural goods, but their vehicles are stopped by the police. The cops do not allow them to sell fruits and vegetables. I request the Chief Minister to look into the matter and help the farmers," Shivakumar told reporters.

"I got to know that more than 50 vehicles were sent back. This government is of no use if they cannot secure the interests of the farmers. This government is not providing required support to the farmers," he added.

The Congress leader was accompanied by MLC Narayana Swamy and former president of Hoskote Authority Narayana Gowda during the visit to KR Puram market.

Bengaluru, Aug 8: Congress is confused on the Ram Mandir issue and in dilemma to take a firm stand fearing loss of Muslim or Hindu votes, according to BJP leader and Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Pralhad Joshi.

"Congress opposed BJP's stand on constructing Ram Mandir in Ayodya, it called Lord Ram fictional and even decided to break the Ramsetu. Now, Congressmen are speaking the other way. Congress cannot think beyond vote bank politics which is in its DNA itself. Congressmen think that they are born to be in power," he said while speaking to media persons. 

He said that BJP is all for constructing a grand Ram Mandir peacefully and legally, due to its conviction and not for politics. Same was the case with the revocation of Article 370 for Jammu & Kashmir. Anti-national activities have comparatively come down now. 

Some people do not want everything going smoothly in the country, and Congress and Asaduddin Owaisi are among them, Joshi opined, adding that the Congress is merely frustrated.
