All BJP leaders including its state president are on ‘Bail gadi’: Ramanath Rai
Mangaluru, July 17: Prime Minister Narendra Modi had termed the Congress as ‘bail gaddi’ as several of its leaders were out on bail. In Karnataka, all BJP leaders including its state president were on bail. Let the Prime Minister tell what he will do with his leaders, Congress former minister B Ramanath Rai challenged.
Speaking to reporters at the party office here on Tuesday, he made a scathing attack on the BJP governance at the centre. The Narendra Modi led NDA government has been making gimmicks when the elections were approached. But it has failed on all fronts in the country, he alleged.
In the name of Jan Dhan account, the public money was credited into the banks. But the people were not benefitted. The prices of petroleum products were being increased everyday due to which, the once closed Reliance company was opened now. The domestic gas was being sold at Rs 400 during UPA tenure and now, the price was increased to Rs 800. For checking black money, the central government had introduced demonetisation. The BJP leaders had promised of crediting Rs 15 lakh to each account of the countrymen after bringing back the black money stashed outside India. During UPA tenure, the black money percentage was 44 and now, it has increased to 88 per cent. Now, the people would get Rs 30 lakh in their accounts, he ridiculed.
Then UPA government had waived off the farm loans of farmers across the country. But the NDA government was silent on the issue. But it had waived off more than Rs 2.5 lakh crore of industrialists. Bharatiya Janata Party had become a Bharatiya Joot Party, he alleged.
During Nirbhaya rape and murder, a situation was created in the country as if it was done by the Congress. But in Uttar Pradesh where the BJP is ruling, such incidents have been repeating now. Earlier, Narendra Modi had spoken about border issue. But after becoming the PM, he had met Pakistan Prime Minister. The central government was more obsessed with publicity and doing nothing good to the people, the former minister said.
The Congress had never said that it would not require the votes of Hindus or Muslims. It was a part of false propaganda, he added.
District Congress president and MLC Harish Kumar, former minister Abhayachandra Jain, former MLA JR Lobo, leaders Ibrahim Kodijal, Muhammad Hanif and others were present.

Justin Trudeau faces backlash for dancing at Taylor Swift concert amid Montreal protests
Ottawa: Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has come under criticism after a video of him dancing at a Taylor Swift concert in Toronto went viral, coinciding with violent protests in Montreal.
The footage, shared widely on social media, shows Trudeau enjoying the performance at the Rogers Centre on November 23. While the concert featured hits like "You Don’t Own Me," Montreal witnessed unrest as anti-NATO demonstrators clashed with police, set vehicles on fire, and burned an effigy of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Social media users criticised Trudeau’s presence at the concert during the crisis, with some comparing his actions to Nero’s alleged indifference during Rome's burning.
The Montreal protests occurred during the ongoing NATO summit in the city, which focused on issues such as Ukraine and climate change. Demonstrators carried Palestinian flags and set off smoke bombs, with at least four arrests reported.
