Mangalore, Aug 10: “Former chief minister B S Yeddyurappa was the most corrupt chief minister in the country. The time for Yeddyurappa to go to prison is nearing as his associates are marching towards prison one after the other. The Congress-led state administration had worked for the welfare of common man, while the Kannadigas are cursing themselves for electing BJP,” said former MP Vinayakumar Sorake.
He was speaking at a protest meet held under the leadership of MLA Abayachandra Jain at Mulky here on Tuesday August 9.
Mulky town panchayat president Sasikant Shetty said that a BJP activist from the lower rung in ZP clicked a few pictures of potholes in a road under Mulky town panchayat and sought the help of the media in publishing it. “He was not concerned about the deplorable condition of the Government Hospital road. If it’s the state of local BJP leaders, their state leaders will swindle the state exchequer,” added Shetty.
Jain said that Congress will support the people affected by irregularities in issuing ration cards, title deeds, irregular supply of electricity, LPG connection, and eviction of poor families.
Congress activists led by Jain held a protest rally from Gandhi Maidan, Karnad, to Mulky town and presented the memorandum to deputy Tahsildar Bharati.
Shalet Pinto, B M Asif, Dhananjay Kotian, Gunapal Shetty, Yogish Kotian, Puttu Bava, Vasant Bernard, Kishore Shetty, Mohan Kotian, Roshan Kumar, Noor Mohammed, Somappa Suvarna, and Manorama Henry were present on the occasion.
