Mangaluru, Mar 28: Dakshina Kannada MP Nalin Kumar Kateel, who seeking reelection on BJP ticket for the third consecutive term today rubbished the reports of secret pact with the Social Democratic Party of India as baseless rumours.

Congress leaders in the coastal district had recently claimed that SDPI fielded its candidate from Dakshina Kannada just to help BJP by dividing non-communal votes and thereby reducing the vote share of Congress in the next month’s Lok Sabha polls.

Replying to the queries of media persons on the sidelines of the BJP workers’ meet at Sullia, Mr Kateel said that Congress and SDPI leaders help each other. “BJP will not stoop to the level of reaching a secret deal with parties like SDPI. You can expect such politics from Congress leaders,” he said.

He said that during last year’s Karnataka Assembly polls Congress leaders had very easily convinced SDPI to withdraw the nominations. 

“This time too Congress will convince SDPI candidate to withdraw nomination in Dakshina Kannada. Let them do whatever they want. We are least bothered. Because we are sure that BJP will register a thumping victory in Dakshina Kannada in this polls too,” he said.

Bengaluru, Jul 27: Former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy said that when COVID-19 has made life and livelihoods difficult, it is unfortunate that charges have been levelled of irregularities in the procurement of COVID-19 equipment.

"The Congress which has levelled charges against the ruling BJP has not so far filed a complaint with any investigating agency. Instead, the Congress has limited itself to getting publicity. On the other hand, the ruling BJP instead of coming clean by ordering a probe into the main charges is indirectly admitting the scam," Kumaraswamy said on Sunday.

"By washing dirty linen in public, both the Congress and the BJP are playing a cruel joke on people instead of protecting their lives," he said.

Hitting out at the BJP, he asked, "Why is it that the BJP is not ordering an investigation into the Rs 2,000 crore Covid 19 corruption charges levelled against the government by the Congress? Why is the government keeping quiet on the corruption charges?"

He said, "Is this the leadership provided by Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa? There could be political pressure on seeking resignation of his Ministers. But why has no action been initiated against any officers? Is there any effort to destroy the evidence by retaining officers in their existing postings?"

"Hunger for publicity is evident when we look at the press conference by five Ministers at a time," he said.

The government has countered the charges of the Congress but backtracked on ordering an investigation, he said.

"Would this not give rise to suspicion that the government is involved in the scam?" he asked.

He also asked why Congress leaders have not filed a complaint before any investigating agency despite "possessing documents to prove the charges".

"Are the Congress leaders trying to get publicity or are they concerned about the welfare of the people? The Congress Legislative Party leader is seeking an account (Lekka Kodi) while the BJP president is seeking answers (Uttara Kodi). Is it enough to give such questions and answers?"

Is there a concrete legal plan to deal with the irregularities? he asked.

"Looking at the way the Congress leaders have addressed media conferences and taken to social media campaigns, it appears that they are trying to get publicity," he said.
