Mangaluru, Mar 4: Congress supremo Rahul Gandhi, who recently toured Hyderabad-Karnataka and Mumbai-Karnataka, is expected to visit coastal districts of Karnataka in third week of March.

MLC Ivan D'Souza on Saturday told media persons here that Rahul will tour undivided Dakshina Kannada district on March 20 and 21. The exact schedule is expected to be out within a week.

Mr D'Souza accused the BJP of instigating disturbances in the state. The BJP should introspect on the law and order situation in Karnataka when the BJP had been in power. The BJP leaders should also clarify on the purpose of Jana Suraksha Yathre-Mangaluru Chalo rally, he demanded.

"The BJP leaders are frustrated and well aware that the BJP will not come to power in Karnataka in the upcoming Assembly elections. Hence, they are engaged in hate politics by raising irrelevant issues and making false allegations against the Congress-led state government," he said.

The MLC said that the Congress has tweeted 10 questions to Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the issues of reduction in export, loan waiver, failure to announce support price to groundnut growers of Karnataka, step motherly attitude towards distributing grants to take up drought relief works and reduction in farm produce in the country.

The Modi-government that speaks so much against corruption has failed to pass the Jan Lokpal Bill in the Parliament, he said.

What's the point? Congress should really think about change of leadership if they want to survive in the future. Even christians and muslims in Mangalore are talking of supporting BJP, because "development". Don't know what's going on in their head.
