Mangaluru, Mar 24: In the last one year, the revenue of the state government rose by 17% and the gross domestic product increased from Rs 16,110 crore to Rs 22, 041 rore, said Sudhanshu Trivedi, senior national spokesperson of Bharatiya Janata Party.
Addressing media persons here on Friday, March 24, he said during the BJP’s regime in Karnataka, the per capita income also increased.
Answering queries of media persons, he said, "The Congress is the party of 85% commission. It is not said by BJP but as per the submission of the late Rajiv Gandhi. This acceptance was made by their own late prime minister.”
He said that the Congress government had diverted power from Lokayukta and had formed the ACB.
On BJP leaders like CT Ravi and KS Eshwarappa giving communal hate speeches regarding the use of loudspeakers in Mosques, he said, "Several high courts of the country have banned use of loudspeakers in Mosques. Even in Saudi Arabia loudspeakers are not allowed. Similarly, loudspeakers are not allowed in the world’s biggest Muslim country Indonesia," Trivedi said.
He also said that neither did BJP nor did RSS coin the phrase 'Love Jihad'. But it was coined by senior communist leader V S Achuthanandan of Kerala. As per the report of Kerala police, he said, "In 1995, the SIMI had taken up a project to target the middle and upper middle classes of the Hindu and Christian community."
Sudhanshu Trivedi also said that Rahul Gandhi and Sonia Gandhi had faced charges before 2014. The people of Karnataka are seeing only hope in the Bharatiya Janata Party. The Modi government has successfully taken all the measures to maintain law and order and restore constitutional legal procedures.
He also added that the Congress government had taken off the cases of SDPI. “A senior leader of Congress has been sympathetic towards the accused of the cooker blast case in Mangaluru. These are typical characteristics of the Congress party. We are the party that walks the talk,” Trivedi said.
