Udupi, Apr 3: “You will have to shoulder my responsibility till April 18. After that I promise that I will shoulder your responsibility as your servant,” said Udupi-Lok Sabha coalition candidate Pramod Madhwaraj.

He was speaking at the block level meeting of activists in Kota, Mandarthi, Sastan. “The achievement of MP Shobha during the last five years is zero. Shobha who did not respond to the difficulties of people has no moral right to ask for their votes. It is unfortunate that she requests for votes in the name of Modi instead of her. The MP who has lost her identity is sure to lose this time. The coalition government in Karnataka is working tirelessly for the progress and welfare of ordinary people. Kumaraswamy has released Rs 46,000 crore for farmers. But the government at the centre is adopting anti farmer policies by refusing to condone farm loans. I have a dream of converting Udupi-Chikkamagaluru constituency as a model in the country, if I win,” said Pramod Madhwaraj.

BJP’s active workers Ganesh and his group joined Congress party in the leadership of Ajith Shetty on the occasion.

Kota block Congress president Shanker Kunder chaired the programme. KPCC secretary Mamatha Gatty, district congress chief secretary Kishan Hegde Kolkebail, Shambhu Poojary, in charge Keshava M Kotian, Balakrishna Poojary, P Rajaram, B K Theja Poojary, Ibrahim, Srinivas Ameen, Ravi Kamath, Dinesh Bangera, Mamatha Shetty, Ichitartha Shetty, Kishore Shetty, Moses Rodrigues, JDS’s Arun Kunder and party activists were present in large numbers. Ganesh Nellibettu compered the programme.
