Mangalore, June 15: As per the directions of the Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee, the District Congress Committee launched 'Congress Nadige-Janara Balige' on Thursday, June 15, at Bengre Kasba, here.
Prior to launching the two-month long campaign, District Congress Committee President Ramanath Rai said a team has been constituted in each block with one district-level leader and two observors to look into the activities during campaign.
The campaign intends to visit all the booths in all the eight constituencies and create awareness on the achievements of the UPA government. The campaign aims at strengthening the party at the grassroot-level.
He said “the campaign aims at informing the masses on the UPA government's programmes like Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS), National Rural Health Mission, National Horticulture Mission, Krishi Vikasa Yojane, programmes meant for the welfare of minorities like 15-point programme. It will highlight the failure of the BJP led government in the State to distribute sites and Ashraya houses to the beneficiaries in the last three years.”
Rai said that pension for aged and disabled are pending for the last three months and the government has failed to set the problems right. The government is busy in getting publicity for the Central government sponsored programmes through advertisements.
