Tippu jayanti will go if BJP comes to power: Adityanath
Hosapete, May 9: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that Tippu Jayanti, which was introduced by Siddaramaiah government in Karnataka despite much opposition, would go if BJP came to power in the state.
Addressing the BJP rally in the town on Wednesday, Adityanath said that BJP Jayanti would be cancelled and Hanuma Jayanti, Krishna Devaraya Jayanti and Chhatrapati Shivaji Jayanti would be introduced if BJP came to power in Karnataka. In order to appease the Muslims, Siddaramaiah government has introduced Tippu Jayanti. But it has dropped Hanuma Jayanti, Krishna Devaraya Jayanti and Chhatrapati Shivaji Jayanti, he criticized.
Siddaramaiah government has not given any contribution to farmers due to which, more than 3500 farmers have committed suicide. But the Centre has introduced various programmes for the welfare of the farmers. The Congress government in the state has involved in corruption, sand mafia and other scandals. So, the development has become a nightmare. It has failed on all fronts including law and order situation, he alleged.
BJP candidate HR Gaviyappa, former MLC Mrutyunjay, party district president Channabasavana Gouda, leaders Rani Samyukta, Shashikala, Kishor Pattikonda, Katigi Ramakrishna and others were present.
