BJP, JDS have done secret poll pacts: Ivan D’Souza
Mangaluru, May.10: BJP and JDS have struck a secret poll pact in the state and have done injustice to the people. But their strategy will not yield any result. Congress will win 130 seats in the upcoming election and Siddaramaiah will once again become the Chief Minister of the state said Chief whip Ivan D’Souza.
Speaking in a press meet at party office here today, he said “I have travelled across the district in the wake of upcoming election. There is pro congress wave everywhere. Especially, Anna Bhagya scheme has proved boon to the congress party”.
There is direct fight between congress and BJP in the state. In very few constituencies JDS is also in the race. In his election speeches at various places in the state Prime Minister Narendra Modi speaks of different problems. But what he has done as a Prime Minister? Ivan questioned.
Congress will bag 15 out of 19 seats in coastal districts like Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Uttara Kannada. There 14 per cent Muslims and 3 per cent Christians in coastal districts. But neither BJP nor JDS has given a single ticket to a Christian candidate. Hence, Christians will support congress party, the chief whip opined.
D.K district congress president Harish Kumar, KPCC general secretary U.B Venkatesh and others were present in the press meet.
