Mithun Rai's victory in Dakshina Kannada, a distant dream: Harikrishna Bantwal
BJP hopes to win by 2 lakh victory margin
Bantwal: While senior Congress leader Janardhan Poojary was unable to win from D.K district, it will not be possible for Mithun Rai to register the victory, who from no angle can come close to Janardhan Poojary, stated Harikrishna Bantwal.
He was speaking to Varthabharathi about the BJP' pre-poll-preparation in Dakshina Kannada Lok Sabha constituency.
D.K district is a constituency where Billawa Community exists in a large number. Congress leader Janardhan Poojary, who has experience in education, politics, and social service; has not been able to defeat BJP. In such circumstances, will people vote for Mithun Rai, who has nothing? Mithun Rai's victory in the district is an unobtainable dream, and Mithun Rai will never become equivalent to Janardhan Poojary. People will not vote Mithun Rai, Harikrishna confidently said.
Victory with 2 lakh margin
As the first round of the campaign was completed, we are beginning the second round in which we will visit every home. We have appointed booth leaders at every booth. At booths, I am starting campaigning at 7 am. Election strategy has been created to win with 2 lakh votes this time. There is no disruption to the BJP's win in the district. DK Congress was never a competitor for BJP in the district. Congress position is negligible here, he opined.
Internal disputes of Congress is our plus point
The election campaigns conducted by the Congress in the previous assembly elections are not seen during the Lok Sabha elections. Also, groupism, internal conflicts in the Congress, are plus points for us.
People will not vote looking at age
In the district where Congress had 7 MLAs, BJP won with only one MLA. Now it is entirely contrasted. The BJP has 7 MLAs, and the Congress has only one MLA, with that we have no barrier to winning here. People of the district will not see the age and cast while casting vote. Even though Nalin Kumar Kateel is 50-year-old, it is not a concern. This time, people have decided to vote for Narendra Modi.
Congress is allergic to Saffron shawl
Earlier, the Congress was allergic to saffron. Now it is putting saffron shawl to play Hindutva drama. Why this drama sir? If they come with saffron shawl during campaigning, people are not fools to vote. Mithun Rai has not come from Kashmir or Delhi. People know about him.
Congress plays dynasty, caste politics
Using secular ideology, Congress is playing caste and dynasty politics. Congress, JDS are dynasty political parties. If there are national parties in the country, it is the BJP and the Communist party. Now, people have come to the point of rejecting caste and dynasty politics. Genealogy is still unpredictable. This cannot be one country. This time, people will be giving a big blow to dynasty and politics through elections.
Congress used Muslims as a vote bank
In the district, 30% of the Muslims are supporting BJP and promised to vote us. Among them, the number of Muslim women is more. Congress has used Muslims as a vote bank, but it is not allowing the community to grow politically. The Lok Sabha election is a witness for that. Congress has only used Muslims as a vote bank. Congress has split the Hindu-Muslims to get political mileage. "Educated Muslims are completely with BJP." The BJP has never used Muslims as a vote bank. Narendra Modi is not anti-Muslim. Then it was Mahatma Gandhi, and today it is Narendra Modi. Both are Gujaratis.
Narendra Modi has not made a single statement against Muslims. He has worked hard for the prosperity of Muslims. Modi intends to seek an India of Hindu, Muslim, and Christian. This time the Congress's vote will come to the BJP and not BJP vote will go to the Congress. This is a hundred percent true. Wait for election results.
In 2019, by becoming Prime Minister once again, PM Narendra Modi will fulfill Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam's wish of India transforming as a universal leader in 2020.

NIA registers case to probe recovery of 79 crude bombs in poll-bound West Bengal
New Delhi (PTI): The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Sunday registered a case to probe recovery of 79 crude bombs in poll-bound West Bengal, officials said.
The move came following a directive by the Union Home Ministry in this regard, they said.
In pursuance to the home ministry's order, the anti-terror agency on Sunday registered a case, which was originally filed at Uttar Kashi police station, Bhangar division, Kolkata on Saturday, and took up the investigation, an NIA spokesperson said in a late night statement.
"The case pertains to recovery of 79 crude bombs and other incriminating materials by Kolkata police, which were being stored at a spot, thereby endangering human life and property," the spokesperson said.
Earlier in the day, the Election Commission had directed the West Bengal Police to launch a special drive to arrest those involved in illegal manufacturing of crude bombs in the poll-bound state, an official said.
It asserted that all cases related to the making of any such explosive would be probed by the National Investigation Agency, the official said.
The directive came after the police recovered a large number of crude bombs from the house of a person, allegedly a TMC worker, at Bhangar in South 24 Parganas district, days ahead of the second and final phase of the assembly polls in the state.
The explosives were recovered during a search at the residence of Rafikul Islam following specific inputs, the official said.
The poll panel also issued a warning to senior police officers across the state over any lapse in maintaining law and order before the April 29 polling.
The first phase of the assembly elections in West Bengal was held on April 23, while the second phase will take place on April 29. Votes will be counted on May 4.
A record 93.19 per cent turnout has been recorded in the first round of polling. Bhangar will vote in the second phase.
