Bengaluru, Oct 21: Accusing the Congress party of disrespecting Vinayak Damodar Savarkar, BJP MP Tejasvi Surya on Monday said that not showing respect to patriots was the culture of India's grand old party.

Speaking at Gandhi Sankalp Yatra in Vijaynagar Assembly constituency, he said: "It is a great matter of pride for us that Savarkar is being considered for the Bharat Ratna award. Disrespecting patriots is the culture of the Congress."

"Savarkar is one of the greatest patriots the country has ever seen. Everyone who reads about him and his contributions will undoubtedly become a patriot," he added.

Surya also announced that he would conduct a march in all eight assembly constituencies in Bengaluru South Lok Sabha constituency.

"Our campaign is aimed at informing the public about cleanliness and health. The public will be sensitised about Swachch Bharat and Ayushman Bharat schemes," he said.

Bengaluru, Jun 20: Amid calls for boycott of Chinese products in the backdrop of Indo-China border face-off, former Karnataka chief minister HD Kumaraswamy sought to know from the BJP government in Karnataka the status of the "Compete with China" policy brought during the previous JDS-Congress rule.

Boycotting Chinese products was not easy like sloganeering but required a creative policy and the coalition government's initiative was a model for it, he said in a series of tweets.

"After the border skirmish, some people got the realisation to boycott the Chinese products but during my tenure (as chief minister) a serious thought was given to it," the JDS leader said.

He was apparently referring to growing clamour for boycott of China-made products after a violent clash between Indian and Chinese troops in the Galwan Valley in Ladakh left 20 Indian Army personnel dead early this week.

Mr Kumaraswamy said he had brought the Compete With China policy to effectively deal with the neighbouring country.

"My government's objective was to offer jobs to the local residents, snatch away market opportunities for China and discard the Chinese products."

"However, what has the present government done to our scheme? It is not known whether it is still continuing or not," Mr Kumaraswamy said.

The Kumarswamy government had identified clusters and earmarked Rs 2,000 crore for their development.
