Gadag, May 6: H K Patil, former minister and Congress candidate for Gadag constituency, has threatened to file a complaint with the Central Election Commission against Prime Minister Narendra Modi for misleading people by making false promises and telling half-truths and lies at public meetings.

Speaking to media persons here today, Patil hit out at the prime minister for misleading voters with false promises he makes at election rallies. Patil said that he would file complaints against the prime minister under IPC and The Representation of People Act (1950).

"Modi has spoken of the Mahadayi river water sharing dispute without proper knowledge of the issue or our state. In 2007 Sonia Gandhi had expressed that Congress had no objection to the resolution of the issue. It is sad the country's prime minister has no knowledge of this," Patil said exhibiting a copy of the dated Prajavani article on the issue.

Patil added that the Yeddyurappa government in 2008 had approached court over the Mahadayi impasse. "The PM is omitting this fact in his statements and blaming the Congress. It was Congress that bagged the permit for the Kalasa Banduri project," Patil pointed out.

"The Yeddyurappa government had lost the trust of people by acting as though it cared about the resolving of the Mahadayi issue. PM Modi's true nature has now become evident with the string of lies he has uttered on the issue at public rallies," Patil added.

We all know that Modi is a habitual liar. Everything that comes out of his filthy mouth is lies. His mother should have washed his dirty mouth with soap and water when he was young . now it's too late.

Jun 19: BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis on Thursday said Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray should sign an agreement with neighbouring Karnataka to avoid a repeat of flood in part of the state like it happened in August last year.

In August 2019, Kolhapur, Sangli districts and some other parts of the state faced unprecedented floods triggered by huge release of water from dams in western Maharashtra and from the Almatti dam in Karnataka.

Fadnavis said, The Maharashtra chief minister should hold an urgent meeting with the Karnataka chief minister and enter into an agreement over-discharge of water from the Almatti dam located on the border of both the states."

If water is not released from the Almatti dam in time, it will cause flooding in border areas of Maharashtra such as Kolhapur and Sangli.

"A pact between the two states would benefit both as it would help in keeping water levels in control, the former chief minister said.

The dams in the state already have sizeable water stock. It would be better if the chief minster schedules a meeting with the Karnataka chief minister regarding the same (agreement), the Leader of Opposition in the assembly said.
