Cong playing caste politics in Karnataka; BJP’s only agenda is development: PM Modi

Agencies
April 26, 2018

Bengaluru, Apr 26: Prime Minister Narendra Modi said today that development was his only agenda for the Karnataka Assembly polls, and accused the state's Congress government of stalling its progress.

Modi also accused the Congress of playing caste politics during elections.

"BJP has a three-pronged agenda for Karnataka-- development, fast-paced development, all-round development," he told BJP leaders, office bearers and party workers via video conference.

"Our agenda is vikas (development), vikas, vikas," he said.

Without naming the Lingayats, the prime minister accused the Congress government of doing caste politics.

"When elections come, they offer lollipops to a caste group so they get busy with it. But the BJP's priority is politics of development," he said.

The Siddaramaiah government recently recommended religious minority status for the Lingayat and its sub-group Veershaiva Lingayat community. The move is seen as an attempt to divide the Lingayats, the bedrock of the BJP's voter base in the state.

The Congress government in Karnataka, he alleged, was responsible for the tardy progress of the state.

With pre-poll surveys projecting a hung Assembly, Modi asked the voters to elect a BJP government with an absolute majority to give a fillip to development.

PM Modi is 100 percent correct in saying bjp agent is development, but he did not say whose development.   He kept this secret.  However, all of us know bjp is working for the development of its high rank officials, business tycoons like Ambani, Adani, Modi etc etc.   the only citizend gained from bjp are business tycoons and looters like Modi, Mallya, etc etc.   Also gainer is swiss bank.   Sab ka saath sab ka vikaas aur aam admi ka satyanaas

Bengaluru, May 14: Reformed underworld don Muthappa Rai, who was battling cancer for the past year, was said to be in a critical condition at Manipal Hospital in Bengaluru, late Wednesday night. Doctors said he was on life-support at the time of going to press. Rai (68), realtor, entrepreneur and founder of pro-Kannada organisation Jaya Karnataka, had retired from public life after he was diagnosed with cancer. He was part of an ongoing investigation into gangster Ravi Pujari, who was extradited from Senegal recently.

Born in Puttur into a Bunt family, he started out as a bank employee in Bengaluru, and later ran a live band restaurant. In 1994, he was shot in a Bengaluru court by a man dressed as a lawyer, after which he was bedridden for a couple of years.

Rai Moved to Dubai in 1996. He was deported from the UAE to India in 2002, and was arrested in Bengaluru when HT Sangliana was the police commissioner. Both Rai and Pujari had allegedly been associated with underworld don Dawood Ibrahim.
