Mangaluru: As the Lok Sabha election approaching, a campaign against MP Nalin Kumar Kateel has gone viral on social media by a Facebook page named 'Nalin Hatao Karavali Karyakarta Bachao.'
The FB page that pretends to be owned by BJP workers has launched a campaign against MP Nalin Kumar. While PM Narendra Modi has been supported, at the same time MP Nalin Kumar has been criticized throughout the page.
Here is the extract of the Kannada text written on the page. "The incompetent MP is not suitable for the Modi government. I, being an honest follower of Modi, will not allow you to stigmatise the Modi’s name.” The Facebook page that has the photo of Prime Minister Narendra Modi has launched the campaign by the name ‘Abhyarthi Badalisi, BJP Gellisi (Change the candidate, elect BJP),”.
The page contains write up against MP Nalin in the English language as well. It has been mentioned in heading as 'Mangaluru MP’s Report Card.' Further written, “BJP activists lost their hopes with Nalin kumar kateel and reporting pm modi we need mp who care for us.”
“Narendra Modiji this is the Gift of your MP! The slope in NH66 has lead to so many Accidents. No Roadwork signals. It seems like a Road to death. Many have died due to accidents since few months, but the MP has failed. Kindly take some actions ji.”
"My friend met with an accident on Yekkur -Pumpwell Road. The incident took place because of the negligence of highway authorities and the district MP.”
In a war of criticism against MP Nalin Kumar on the social media platform, the write up reads "Mp Nalin should not be given the Lok Sabha ticket from Dakshina Kannada for any reason.”
The creation of such a Facebook page to support PM Modi and vehemently criticise MP Nalin Kumar Kateel, that too when the Lok Sabha polls are near, has become a matter of discussion among the public.
It can be recalled that during the 2014 Lok Sabha elections also, a group within the same political party had opposed the issuance of MP ticket to Nalin Kumar Kateel. A campaign was also launched against him. Due to which, there were discussions about Kateel missing the ticket. But at the last minute, he was successfully got the ticket.
