Mangalore, October 25: The BJP is sure of getting outstanding response to Advani's Rathyathra, which will be entering the district on October 30.


Addressing a news conference in Mangalore on Monday after holding discussion over the preparations required to welcome L K Advani's Rathyathra, BJP General Secretary C T Ravi said that the 41-day long yatra intends to spread awareness against corruption, stress on bringing back the black money hoarded in foreign banks and to take measures to make administrative mechanism more efficient.


“Party workers from Belthangady and Bantwal will come to the city in a 'padayatra' and express support to the Rathyatra of Advani, he said adding that as many as 30 different wings have been formed for the success of the yatra in the state,” he said.


Sixth rathyatra


“This is the 6th rathyatra of 84-year old Advani. With his clean character and credibility that he has maintained over 57 years of political life, he is in a position to face any challenge,” said Ravi.


Guilty will be punished


Ravi said that corruption has engulfed even the BJP but it has not smothered the party. He said that senior leader L K Advani will be giving out a clear message through his rathayatra that wrong doers and guilty will not be spared at any cost.


With regard to Home Minister R Ashoka, Ravi said that there are only allegations, and not been proved yet. Hence there is no question of keeping him away at all.


“Advani will surely visit Bangalore and R Ashoka will take part in the programme to be held there,” he said adding that if the allegations are proved against any BJP leaders then they will be expelled from the party without any second thoughts.


“B S Yeddyurappa tendered his resignation as soon as the Lokayukta report was out. But there are people like Raj Kumar in Sheela Dixit's cabinet who have not stepped down from the post despite the allegations being proved,” he said adding that BJP leaders have set examples for others through their conduct.

Bengaluru, Jul 2: Senior Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge said that the "RSS needs to be defeated to save the country" and Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah are "destroying the nation".

Kharge was speaking at a KPCC program where DK Shivakumar took charge as state Congress president.

He said that the Prime Minister and the Home Minister are not ready to take accountability for any issues including China, and are instead blaming Rajiv Gandhi Foundation of getting funds from China.

"Rajiv Gandhi foundation utilized funds for the development of the nation and for the betterment of the downtrodden people," Kharge said.

"Prime Minister Modi and Shah both are destroying the economy of the nation, and their policies and plans are the reason for increasing COVID-19 situation in India," he said.

"Prime Minister and Amit Shah never listen to Opposition parties, instead they plan something and their policies are the reason for MSME losses and job losses in the country," he added.
