Bantwal: In what is seen as a challenge for Congress leader and forest minister B Ramanath Rai, the Social Democratic Party of India has decided to field a candidate in the upcoming Karnataka assembly poll from Bantwal constituency where BJP is leaving no stone unturned to register a victory.

At a party worker’s meet held at Al Khazana Community Hall here on Friday, March 9, SDPI state president Abdul Hannan formally announced that Riyaz Farangipete, a local leader, will be the party’s official candidate from Bantwal in 2018 polls.

Later, addressing the party workers, Abdul Hannan said that SDPI will send at least one legislator to the Karnataka Assembly at any cost in 2018. “Karnataka will definitely see the victory of at least one SDPI candidate this time. This victory will be the result of the decade long struggle of the party. Hence all the party workers should intensify campaign for their candidate and work at booth level,” he suggested.

Claiming that SDPI’s base has been strengthened in Bantwal constituency which has highest number of voters from Muslim and backward communities, he said: “This land has witnessed the sacrifice of many party workers. Their sacrifices should not go vain.”

Speaking on the occasion, Riyaz Farangipete claimed that he will be the voice of Muslim and Dalit communities and all the downtrodden people. 

SDPI DK district president Ataullah Jokatte, PFI national general secretary Ilyas Mohammed Thumbey also spoke. A few workers from other parties were inducted into SDPI on the occasion.

Is your sermon ONLY RESERVED for SDPI? What about JDS- BSP alliance in Karnataka? Throughout India, NO SDPI contested, still communal BJP won. Stop this Fear psychosis and BJP DEMON Syndorme, congress has been using this decades. Really you want to win, Let congress join hands with secular, progressive, thinkers, social activists, let atleast 10 new voices we hear from the Assembly of Karnataka. This will be the real defeat of communal forces.

I dont know when this SDPI stop their day-dreaming. SDPI...... you are just a small fish and don't try to swallow the big fish like Shark and Whale. First learn how to swim and then learn how to swallow the big fish. A very humble request to all the candidates of SDPI and its followers to stay in silent mode atleast for this Assembly election and for the General Election in 2019. Let we all jointly work to keep the saffron party away from Karnataka State and also in 2019 from India. Your intense behaviour clearly display that you are the agent of BJP same like MIM and other Muslim independent candidates working against CONGRESS. Only God can give you guidance to understand the need of the hour. Lets make our great nation INDIA: A secular Nation.
