Bengaluru, Dec 17: Congress is setting fire on various issues in the country, according to Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh. Addressing a public meeting held in Bengaluru as part of Bharatiya Janata Party’s state-wide Parivarthana rally on Sunday, he said that it was BJP which was trying to douse the fire and not the other way round.

“We have been dousing fire set by the Congress in the country,” the minister said responding to the statement by newly-elected Congress party president Rahul Gandhi, who on Saturday accused the BJP of stoking fire in the country. Mr. Singh was addressing a public meeting held in Bengaluru as part of BJP’s state-wide Parivarthana rally on Sunday.

“It is not BJP’s policy that led to birth of terrorism or naxalism. BJP’s policy did not lead to 1984 violence or Punjab issue. Our policy did not start fire in Kashmir,” he said, adding that it was BJP which was fire-fighting and not the Congress. He also said that it was not BJP’s policy that has given rise to dynasty politics in the country.

Stating that India had emerged as a strong nation now, the Home Minister said: “If India was a weak nation, it would not be possible to settle the Doklam deadlock on the Indo-China border. China has also accepted that India is not a weak nation any more. China feels that it should maintain a good relationship with India,” he added.

Dear Rajnath, please dont lie to this extent.  We know who is lying.  You have made this statement my mistake.  Instead of saying bjp sets fire and congress puts if off you said congress sets fire and bjp puts it off.   We know who set fire in Honnavar + Kumta + Sirsi etc.   Dont try to fool us dear.  We know that you are a Master Degree holder  in lying from Nagpur university.   Please feel shame and try to understand what are you saying.   You cannot fool us all the time.   You should know this and it will be better for you.

Bengaluru, Jul 16: Former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Thursday hit out at state Health Minister B Sriramulu for stating that "only God can save Karnataka" from COVID-19 and asked him to resign from his post.

Speaking to media here in Bengaluru, Siddaramaiah said, "The government cannot say that we are helpless. Why is the government in power? You have power and you have money. It is your primary duty to serve the citizens of the state."

On being asked about Karnataka Health Minister's statement, the Congress leader said: "Let him resign and go out. God will help you only if you will put all your efforts."

Meanwhile, President of the Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee DK Shivakumar tweeted "Karnataka's Health Minister saying 'Only God can save Karnataka' reflects poorly on @BSYBJP govt's ability to handle the Covid crisis. Why do we need such a government if they cannot tackle the pandemic?"

Sriramulu had said on Wednesday that either people should inculcate awareness or only God can save them from COVID-19.

"Who can save us at this time? It's either God or people should inculcate awareness in them. Congress leaders are involved in political mudslinging at this time. This is not fine and it will not help them in any way," the Minister had said.

"It is a crucial time, in the interest of the general public. I request all the Congress leaders not to indulge in loose talk regarding the issue, it leads to more panic situation among the general public. We are ready to adhere to any punishment if we did any wrong thing," he had added.
