Doubt if Nalin Kumar Kateel himself understands what he speaks: HD Kumaraswamy
Hubballi: Former Karnataka Chief Minister HD Kumaraswamy on Wednesday took on BJP’s state president and MP Nalin Kumar Kateel adding that the latter’s remarks should not be taken seriously.
Nalin Kumar Kateel has been making the headlines with controversial remarks lately, to which the JD(s) leader said Nalin Kumar himself cannot understand what he speaks.
“I cannot understand what Nalin Kumar says, and I doubt if he himself understands what he speaks at public rallies and events.” Kumaraswamy said.
He was replying to a question posed by one of the reporters regarding Nalin Kumar’s remarks that Siddamaraiah had achieved political mileage after deceiving leaders like former PM HD Deve Gowda.
Speaking about the IT raids at JD(s) leader Prabhakar Reddy’s house, Kumaraswamy said “There’s an IT raid every 2-3 months on opposition leaders. These have now become a norm in the wake of assembly elections. We all know why these raids happen.”

Instagram removes BJP’s post claiming Cong ‘will snatch wealth of non-muslims’ following backlash
New Delhi: An animated video post shared on BJP’s official Instagram handle, asserting that the Congress party would snatch wealth from non-Muslims to ‘distribute it to its favorite community of invaders,’ has sparked significant backlash. Following the uproar, the photo sharing platform has taken down the post, reports Newslaundry.com.
Meanwhile, it is uncertain whether the post was removed by the BJP or by Instagram following mass reporting by several users as “misinformation” and “hate speech”. The video depicted Rahul Gandhi holding the Congress manifesto which transforms into the logo of the Muslim league. Furthermore, it sought support for PM Modi from every ‘Bharatiya,’ who is also shown wearing a saffron turban.
According to the report, it also contained a clip of PM Modi alleging that the former PM Manmohan Singh had said, “Muslims have the first claim on our resources,” insinuating that if the Congress were to assume power, it would confiscate the money and assets of non-Muslims, redistributing them to Muslims, whom it favored. Labeling Muslims as ‘infiltrators’, the video depicted historical invaders as looters who plundered India's resources and suggested that the Congress party continues to empower individuals from the same community.
The video then communicated that the Congress party’s manifesto is “nothing but Muslim league’s ideology in disguise. If you are a non-Muslim, Congress will snatch your wealth and distribute it to Muslims.” It also slinged the BJP’s official slogan ‘abki baar, 400 paar,’ and called that it was the need of the hour, since Modi only has the “strength to stop the Congress party’s evil plans.”
Similar claims have also been made by several BJP leaders. Recently, Union Minister Anurag Thakur stated that the Congress intends to “Give your children's property to Muslims.”
