Udupi, March 5: BJP government in the state did not perform up to the expectations of the women folk in general and mothers in the state, said former MP and Congress leader Tejaswini Ramesh.

Speaking at a press meet Tejaswini said that BJP failed to fulfill the promises of keeping up the social and religious values, which they claimed to champion. “A government, which failed to keep up respect for women, is unfit to rule a state. There is no connection between what the BJP promised before coming to power and how its government is acting”, she said.

She also accused the BJP government of failing to continue the Sthree Shakthi Self Help Group programme empowering the women.

People of Udupi-Chikmagalur are intelligent and know which party to vote when there is a Congress rule at the center. Replying a question on JD(S) fielding its candidate to split the secular votes, Tejaswini said that voters are very clever here and know the fate of JD(S) here. They also know they filed a candidate to ease the victory of a candidate and some other times to see the defeat of another candidate, she said.

Replying another question Tejaswini asked whether the BJP leaders who promoted Rave Party will make their wife and children dance for the promotion of tourism.

District Mahila Congress President Veronica Carnelio, Ranjeetha MB, Jayashree Krishna Raj, Shilpa Suvarna, Gopi Naik and others were present.
