Mangaluru: MLA Vedavyasa Kamath has alleged that the Congress party has illegally opened an election office in an under construction building at Bendoorwell, which has not received 'Completion Certificate' (CC) yet.

Addressing a press conference in the city's Bunts hostel on Thursday, he said "Congress has presented its real culture in front of the people by using an under construction building belonging to Jokim Luis Pinto in Bendoorwell.

That building owner did not get the CC. According to the Mangaluru Municipal Corporation, using a building which does not have CC is illegal. Congress party will be indulging in more illegal activities after the election," MLA Vedavyasa Kamath alleged.
