Bengaluru, May 10: Reaching out to Dalits and other backward communities in poll-bound Karnataka, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said his government was trying to fulfil Dr. B.R. Ambedkar’s dream of a powerful and prosperous nation.

Hitting out at the ruling Congress in Karnataka, he said the party failed to confer Bharat Ratna on Ambedkar when it was in power.

Addressing the SC, ST, BC and Slum Morcha workers of Karnataka BJP via “Narendra Modi” app, he said, “Our government has made the SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act more stringent.”

He also reminded the workers that the BJP had the maximum number of members of Parliament belonging to the SC/ST, OBC and minority communities.

The Congress did not allow the functioning of Parliament to avoid giving constitutional status to the OBC Commission.

Earlier, the Prime Minister had reached out to the party office-bearers and workers of the women and youth wings through the app.

Bengaluru, Jan 25: Karnataka Health Minister B Sriramulu on Friday, hit out at JD(S) leader HD Kumaraswamy, accusing the former Chief Minister of pursuing "vote bank" politics and advised him to move to Pakistan.

"It is better to move to Pakistan...if he shows so much love towards Pakistan, why should he live in India? He should not do dual politics like this. He wants to be fair to Pakistan and also to India," Sriramulu said.

Terming it as "double standards", the Minister said: "From so many years, you have been doing vote bank politics. You have to understand one thing...you are the son of former Prime Minister and also a former Chief Minister. By giving these type of statements, I think it will hurt the citizens of India. If you want to do vote bank politics I must suggest that it is better to leave the country."

His statement comes after Kumaraswamy took a jibe at BJP over its "obsession with Pakistan".
