Complaint filed with AICC against Siddaramaiah’s Swabhimani Janandolana Samavesha
Bengaluru: A complaint has surfaced against the ‘Siddaramaiah Swabhimani Janandolana Samavesha,’ scheduled to be held in Hassan on December 5 by various progressive organisations. An anonymous individual has written to AICC President Mallikarjun Kharge, raising concerns about the event.
The letter alleges that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has consistently distanced himself from Congress platforms and symbols, instead organising programmes under the banners of different organisations since joining the party.
It further highlights that during Siddaramaiah’s birthday celebrations in the past, he avoided involving the party directly. While all the leaders present at the event were from Congress, hosting the event under the party’s symbol could have strengthened its position. However, senior leaders failed to address this.
The letter expresses disappointment over some ministers and MLAs of the state government, elected under the Congress symbol, participating in the Swabhimani Janandolana event in Hassan. It questions why the Congress party and government, which gave them power, are being sidelined. The complaint urges the party leadership to instruct Siddaramaiah and others to organise events under the Congress symbol for the benefit of the party.
The letter also claims that all arrangements for the programme are being made by Congress leaders at party offices, yet the Congress symbol is being deliberately excluded. Party workers are questioning this decision and expect senior leaders to intervene.
It concludes by requesting Siddaramaiah to explain why he distances the Congress party from his events, despite being given power by the party. The complaint calls for immediate action to ensure the party’s interests are safeguarded and loyal workers feel encouraged.
