Siddaramaiah creating fear with ‘BJP changing constitution’ claim: Bommai
Haveri: “Since Siddaramaiah has nothing to speak against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he is creating political fear under the claim that Bharatiya Janata Party is scheming to change the constitution,” said former Karnataka Chief Minister and BJP candidate from Haveri-Gadag parliamentary constituency Basvaraj Bommai lambasting at Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah.
Speaking to press persons ahead of his election campaigning in Savanur on Saturday, he said, “Siddaramaiah has nothing to say against PM Modi. He made the same remarks previously too. Nobody can change the constitution, there is a law for everything. The Supreme Court has also stated that it is not possible to change the constitution. Siddaramaiah is only making these remarks to create a political fear.”
In response to CM Siddaramaiah’s prediction that the BJP won't secure 400 seats, Bommai retorted, “A stone has fallen into the Congress’ plate. They are talking about others when they are only contesting for 230 seats. But, our party will cross 370 seats.”

People taught lesson to those who were talking about changing Constitution: Pawar
Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (Maharashtra) (PTI): NCP (SP) chief Sharad Pawar on Friday said the country taught a lesson to those who were talking about changing the Constitution.
He was speaking at the unveiling of the Urdu translation of English book "Padmavibhushan Sharad Pawar - The great Enigma" by Sheshrao Chavan here.
The political situation in the country should change, Pawar said, adding, "We should think where we are heading. We have to see that the country does not fall in the wrong hands."
Four months ago (during the Lok Sabha election campaign), Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his party colleagues made statements that were not in national interest, the NCP (SP) chief said, referring to BJP leader Ananthkumar Hegde's controversial remark that they needed 400-plus seats to amend the Constitution.
"It is a good thing that the people taught a lesson to those who talked about changing the Constitution," Pawar said.
He also hit back at Union minister Amit Shah who recently called him "ringleader of corrupt people".
"A week ago, Amit Shah said that Sharad Pawar is the ringleader of all the corrupt people in the country. Earlier, when he was in Gujarat, he used the law in the wrong manner. For that the Supreme Court externed him from Gujarat. The one who was externed by the Supreme Court is holding charge of the Union Home Ministry now," Pawar said.
Shah was discharged in the Sohrabuddin Shaikh fake encounter case in 2014.
