Bengaluru, Nov 2: Thousands of vehicles were stranded on Tumakuru Road due to the BJP’s ‘Nava Karnataka Parivarthana Yatra” whic began from BIEC at Madavara here on Thursday.

Two ambulances were stuck for over half an hour in the jam, even as the city traffic police were struggling hard to manage the traffic on the busy Tumakuru-Nelamangala highway.

Ironically, BJP’s national president Amit Shah also experienced the affects of the traffic jam first-hand. He waited for over an hour at the HAL Airport for the convoy to ferry him to the venue. However, the convoy was stuck in the traffic jam.

Eventually, Mr. Shah had to take a helicopter to reach the venue to flag off the bike rally that was organised as part of the programme.

Over three lakh bikers are expected to take part in the rally. A huge group of bikers from Mysuru were led by MP Pratap Simha, while another rally is being led by C.P. Yogeshwar from Channapatna.

During 75-day long Yatra, BJP’s top leaders, including State president B.S. Yeddyurappa, would tour all the 224 Assembly constituencies. Party leaders are scheduled to visit three Assembly constituencies every day and hold public meetings in each of them.

Bengaluru, Jul 2: Senior Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge said that the "RSS needs to be defeated to save the country" and Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah are "destroying the nation".

Kharge was speaking at a KPCC program where DK Shivakumar took charge as state Congress president.

He said that the Prime Minister and the Home Minister are not ready to take accountability for any issues including China, and are instead blaming Rajiv Gandhi Foundation of getting funds from China.

"Rajiv Gandhi foundation utilized funds for the development of the nation and for the betterment of the downtrodden people," Kharge said.

"Prime Minister Modi and Shah both are destroying the economy of the nation, and their policies and plans are the reason for increasing COVID-19 situation in India," he said.

"Prime Minister and Amit Shah never listen to Opposition parties, instead they plan something and their policies are the reason for MSME losses and job losses in the country," he added.
