BJP fielded weak candidate to help JD(S): CM Siddaramaiah
Vijayapur: “While the BJP has fielded a ‘weak candidate’ in Chamundeshwari to help Janata Dal(S), the Janata Dal(S) has deliberately fielded ‘weak candidates’ in Hanur and Piriyapatna to help the BJP. This clearly shows that the BJP and the Janata Dal(S) have entered into an alliance to help each other and to divide Congress votes,” Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said.
Addressing an election rally in Indi town of vijayapur district on Sunday, he asked described the JD (S) as an opportunistic party which only looks at gaining power without any ideology, Mr. Siddaramaiah accused the Janata Dal(S) of entering into a pact with the BJP for political victory.
Mocking at Narendra Modi’s slogan “Sabka Saat, Sabka Vikas”, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has said that if the BJP really has concern to taking all the people along with it, it should have given ticket to Muslims.
Mr. Siddaramaiah said that the BJP never believed in social equality and achieving peace in society as it is a communal party which only does religious politics. “The Congress never believes in religious politics as the BJP does,” he added.
‘Where are Acche Din’
Referring to the “Acche Din” slogan of the BJP, the Chief Minister asked where are the “Acche Din”, as the cost of petrol has now reached the highest ever and the prices of essential commodities are also high.
Taking on BJP State president B.S. Yeddyurappa, he said that Mr. Yeddyurappa, who went to jail on corruption charge, gets angry when somebody says that he went to jail. “I wonder why Mr. Yeddyurappa loses his temper when someone calls him a man who went to jail. After all, it is the fact,” he said.
Congress candidates M.B. Patil, Shivananda Patil and Vithal Katakadonda were present.
