Udupi, Oct 16: Udupi-Chikkamagalur MP Shobha Karandlaje has alleged that Popular Front of India (PFI) has been trying to provoke youths in coastal Karnataka to join the extremist outfits like IS.

Speaking to reporters after offering prayers at Hasanamba temple in Hassan district, the BJP leader said that chief minister Siddaramiah led Congress government in Karnataka also backing PFI.

The law and order situation in the state has failed and the government is misusing the Anti Corruption Bureau and the police department, she alleged.

Shobha said that the state government is conducting Tipu jayanti with the intention to garner votes. She said that Tipu jayantineed not be celebrated to only mantain peace and harmony. "With just five months left before the Assembly elections, the Congress party is playing vote bank politics to attract minorities which is not right," she said.

Continuing her tirade, Shobha said that the DySP Ganapathi case was closed without a proper probe. "Minister George and Meti were given clean chits. The organisations conducting the probe have turned into organisations that give clean chits to Congress leaders," she said.

"By waiving farm loans up to Rs 50,000 in cooperative banks, the government has tried to fool farmers. The input subsidy released by the Centre for the crop loss has not reached farmers," she said.

"The government has been claiming that pro-AHINDA (Alpasankhyataru, Hindulidavaru Mattu Dalitaru) has illegally deposited Rs 1,000 crore earmarked for the benefit of backward community students in the banks. The interest is being misused. Is minister Anjaneya not aware of it," she questioned.
