Cong candidate to file complaint with CEC against PM Modi for lies and false promises

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.

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.
