If voted to power, will waive Rs 51K-cr crop loans: Kumaraswamy

Bengaluru, Jan 11: JD(S) state president H D Kumaraswamy on Wednesday said that if his party is voted to power in the upcoming elections, his government would waive

Rs 51,000 crore crop loans obtained by farmers of the state.

Addressing a youth rally in Devanahalli in Bengaluru Rural district, he said both the BJP and the Congress lacked concern for farmers. Though more than 3,000 farmers had committed suicide in the last four-and-a-half years, the government was busy splurging on promoting its achievements through Chief Minister Siddaramaiah's 'Navakarnataka Nirmana' programme.

He said if the JD(S) comes to power, his government would provide a monthly financial benefit of Rs 6,000 to pregnant women for six months and a pension of Rs 5,000 for the elderly and widows.

JD(S) youth wing president and Sorab MLA Madhu Bangarappa said if Kumaraswamy is voted to power, more than one crore youth would get jobs.

He said the BJP had betrayed north Karnataka farmers over Mahadayi issue, and that the party would be given a fitting reply in the elections.

Stating that several disgruntled Congress and BJP leaders would join the JD(S) in the coming days, Bangarappa expressed confidence that the party would win 113 seats.

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.
