Mangaluru: BJP is playing politics in the name of Billawas - DK Congress chief Harish Kumar


Daijiworld Media Network – Mangaluru (DC)

Mangaluru, May 1: The Congress has been giving opportunities and constant support to the Billawa community but the BJP is playing politics by making false allegations, said Dakshina Kannada district Congress president Harish Kumar here on Monday April 30.

Addressing a press meet at Congress office Harish Kumar said, "This time the Congress has given tickets to three candidates from Billawa community in Dakshina Kannada too. But the BJP is busy making false campaign against us. Instead of playing politics the BJP should reveal how much prominence it has given to the Billawa community."

"BJP is seeking votes on the basis of Hindutva which is in violation of election code of conduct. For them only those who take BJP membership are Hindus and they are misleading the youth in the name of Hindutva. There are Hindus including in Congress. Congress believes in the concept of Hindutva preached by Brahmashri Narayana Guru, Swami Vivekananda and Basavanna," he added.

The BJP is saying that over 24 Hindu activists have been killed in the state but how many seats have they given to their kin in assembly polls, he questioned the BJP.

The Congress condemns insulting remarks against Jain community by the Union minister Ananth Kumar Hegde, he added.

He further said that the BJP was making false campaign that the Congress had hatched an alliance with the SDPI. "SDPI is a political party and contesting is their choice in the polls. We have not made any alliance with SDPI and such statements are coming out from those who failed to make any pact with the SDPI, he criticized.

Congress leader Neeraj Pal, Sadashiva Ullal and others were present.

    Did Billawas supported Mr. Janardhana Poojary? If billawas have supported him, he would have still been MLA of Mangalore. Instead billawas fall to the false promises of BJP and supported Dhananjaya Kumar who was utter useless. Billawas are the main cause for Poojary's downfall.

    Yes bro,

    yourcomment has lot of weightin it.But forget andh bhakths will always be blind.

    Congress has given so many times Jananna tickets,inspite f being so many times he lost,because his own people were voting BJP.And now they brought bjp to such a level ,where bjp no more needs Billawas.They didn't even care to give ticket to Satyajit sir who served for 35years.If anyone is responsible for Jananna's political then, its his own people. we sincere people don't backstab,we are loyal to congress and its candidate since 1947.We are taught not to play such dirty games.

    In Congress Money power is nowhere,anything if it is then Progress towards development.

WHY THE DIESEL AND PETROL PRICE BENEFIT WAS NOT EXTENDED TO THE CITIZENS OF INDIA, THOUGH INTERNATIONAL CRUDE PRICE WAS LOWEST DURING THESE FOUR YEARS, INDIA EXPORT OIL TO SRILANKA, NEPAL FOR THE LOWER RATE AND TO INDIAN CITIZENS SELLS FOR HIGHER PRICE, WHO IS ACTUALLY GETTING BENEFIT?

    I'm tired of this comment. Let's look at it this way Bhakths. Siddaramaiah can get his work done even when he is asleep. He commands that much respect. He da maan. Get it?
    He doesn't have to be watching his back as to who is going to replace him as CM as happened in the last BJP government. Understand?
