Puttur, May 7: When Muslims have been trying to organize their community, Congress leaders have been dividing the Hindus due to which Congress is more dangerous than Muslims, said Sullia MLA Angara.

Speaking at the BJP SC/ST Morcha meeting here on Monday, he said that after Congress came to power in the state, it has been planning and executing its schemes to oppress the Hindus in the state. By bringing in Anti-Superstitious Belief, the government has hurt the sentiments of the Hindus. Through this, it has been appeasing the Muslims and dividing the Hindus. But people are aware of this strategy. The BJP would win 150 seats this time, he said.

The Congress leaders have been alleging that he has made illegal property. But this allegation is far from truth. If he has any of such illegal property, he would be happy to give it to Congress, he said.

BJP candidate Sanjeeva Marandur said that Ganga Kalyana scheme was being implemented properly. But in the last five years, the Congress did not find any beneficiaries. It has given the benefit of the scheme to its own supporters. Despite its ruling for the last 65 years, the Congress has done nothing for the welfare of backward classes. It has been misusing the name of Dr BR Ambedkar. But they do not have moral right to say the name of Ambedkar. It was NDA government which gave him the Bharat Ratna Award and BJP is committed to fulfill his intensions, he said.

“We have lost many of our friends during Congress administration. So, people should not give another chance to the Congress”, he said appealing the people to support him in the name of Hindutva.

ZP president Meenakshi Manjunath, MLC Kota Srinivas Poojary, party state SC Morcha president Bhagirathi, Puttur SC Morcha president Kittu Ajila, taluk panchayat president Bhavani Chidanand, vice president Rajeshwari and others were present.
