Kharge hits out at Modi, asserts Cong going all out to unite Opp.
Koratagere (Karnataka), March 5: The Congress is making all efforts to unite various political parties in the country to mount a united fight against Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led BJP in the days to come, party president Mallikarjun Kharge said on Sunday.
He also urged the people to root out the BJP in Karnataka during the Assembly polls, likely by May, and install a Congress government that will work for all sections of the people and for development of the state.
“Modi Minister. is sitting comfortably as the Prime Let him sit there for few more days. Let’s see what will happen in the days to come. We are trying to unite various parties to put a united fight against the BJP,” Mr Kharge said.
Speaking at a party meeting, he said Mr Modi did not become Prime Minister with 51 per cent vote share as the BJP got just 37 per cent in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls.
“Let Modi say what he has done to our state,” Mr Kharge said while hitting out at the government on the issues of unemployment and price rise, among other issues.
Mr Kharge was addressing Tumakuru district-level Congress workers’ meeting in Koratagere.
Accusing the BJP of creating a rift within the society, he said the ruling party is instigating clashes between Hindus and Muslims, and between different castes.
“Such a party’s government is there at the Centre and also in the state. Instead of development and welfare of people, what should be the dress worn to schools, what should be the food habit are their main issues. Root out this BJP government for a happy and prosperous future,” he added.
