Emotional issues are assets of BJP: Siddaramaiah
Transfer of presidentship of Congress women wing
Bengaluru, November 19: Former chief minister Siddaramaiah said that emotional issues like temple, religion and others were the real capital for BJP.
Inaugurating a programme organized to hand over the charge of Congress women unit at the Dr BR Ambedkar Bhavan here on Monday, Siddaramaiah said that the BJP people have been discussing only emotional issues instead of real problems of the people. Even in Sabarimala issue, the BJP people have been keeping women as shields and fighting against the Supreme Court verdict. Though the Supreme Court had given verdict on triple talaq, the BJP people have been claiming that it was their achievement, he alleged.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has done nothing for the people of the country in his four years administration. But he was speaking only in ‘man ki baat’. But he would not speak in the Parliament Session. Though thousands of crores of amount was looted from the banks, he was so gentleman that he would never speak anything about it, Siddaramaiah ridiculed.
Congress means, it was a custodian of social justice. But the BJP has no coordination and coexistence. The Congress has given equal opportunities to the women. Because of the 73 and 74 amendment to the Constitution brought by Indira Gandhi, women have got reservation, he said.
Reiterating that the BJP would bite the dust in the forthcoming Lok Sabha election and Congress president Rahul Gandhi would become the prime minister, Siddaramaiah said that the Congress had contributed a lot for the welfare of the country. Congress workers should educate the people about party contribution to the nation, he said.
Congress leader in the Lok Sabha, Mallikarjun Kharge said that more opportunities to the women would ensure party organization along with the progress of the country.
KPCC president Dinesh Gundu Rao, Working president Eshwar Khandre, Outgoing women wing president Lakshmi Hebbalkar, Newly appointed president Dr Pushpa Amarnath, Former ministers Anjaneya, Rani Sathish, HM Revanna, Satish Jarakiholi, Rajasekaran, MP Druva Narayan, MLA Soumya Reddy, Mayor Gangambike and others were present.
God is one for all
“There should not be gender discrimination to see God. Where is separate God for woman and man. There is only one God for the entire universe”.
- Siddaramaiah, Former Chief Minister
Power is not stagnated water
Power should not be there with one person. It is not stagnated water. So, Pushpa Amarnath is given the responsibility of the state women wing of the party. Statements that there is no unity in women wing and accusing one another are not true.
- Dinesh Gundu Rao, KPCC President
