Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai accused Congress MLA Satish Jarkiholi of trying to vitiate the atmosphere in society through the statements.

Talking to reporters at Udupi Helipad here on Tuesday,he said that Satish’s statement has hurt the sentiments of people of this country.

The Congress Party is doing appeasement policy just for the sake of votes and making such half baked statements without any in-depth study.

They are under the wrong impression of getting the minority votes through such statements.By doing this, the Congress leaders are trying to disturb the very foundation of belief of every Indian.

Creating problems within any country amounts to the act of ‘anti-nationalism’.Everyone must condemn such acts. However, the Congress Party has been acting as if it is supporting such a statement.

*Why silence?

The CM questioned the stoic silence of former AICC President Rahul Gandhi and Leader of the Opposition in State Legislative Assembly Siddaramaiah who shout at trivial matters.

Their silence will indicate their approval for Satish’s statement. If the Congress fails to open its mouth if the sentiments of the majority Hindus are hurt, what does it mean?.

Will lose its identity

Bommai said Jarkiholi was still defending his statement and the Congress Party must offer an unconditional apology and regret for such a heinous act.

If it fails to do so,that party will lose its whatever little identity prevailing in the country.Already, the electorate of the country have shown the place to the Congress Party.

The statement by Satish was not only prejudiced but planned.Seeing statements issued by various people of various parties on different situations against the feelings,thinking and heritage of the Hindus, time has come not only to stop agitations but also their talks.

*If innocent,why scared?

Reacting to MP D.K.Suresh’s statement on harassment by CBI, he said why Suresh must get scared if he has not done any mistake. On the one hand, the MP says he was ready to face any probe and on the other hand he complains of harassment.

Gift

On the Congress leaders’ statements on giving the gift of victory to the newly-elected AICC President Mallikarjun Kharge, the CM said those leaders have spoken about the Hindus but they too part of it.Let us see who will give gifts to whom”.

Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai said Leader of the Opposition in the State Legislative Assembly Siddaramaiah is under illusion that the people will bring back the Congress Party to power in the state.

Talking to reporters here on Monday,he said the Congress leaders,after five years of ruling the State under the leadership of Chief Minister, Siddaramaiah,were saying that they will come back to power.

Siddaramaiah had told hundreds of time that HD.Kumaraswamy and BS.Yediyurappa would not become the chief minister again.

The Congress party which had won 120 plus seats in 2013,reduced to 77 in 2018 Assembly polls.

The electorate has rejected the Congress Party that ruled the State for five years and gave number of programs.

The people have not forgotten the divide and rule policy and pushing the state to rock bottom between 2013 and 2018.So,there is no need to take Siddaramaiah’s statement very seriously.

‘Congress means lie,lie means Congress’

Their allegations are bundle of lies. It is beyond doubt that Congress means lie, lie means Congress.The corruption during the Congress Party ruling was being probed.

Dr.Ambedkar,father of modern democratic India

He said while Buddha is the symbol of knowledge, he left the kingdom,gained knowledge and spread the message of social and religious values among the people.

Ambedkar also tread the path shown by Goutham Buddha,ensured equality for all,created awareness among people and helped to maintain equality, unity and democracy in the country.

A father of modern India’s democracy,Ambedkar wrote the Constitution for which he must be remembered by everyone.

“My wish was to bring social justice to reality’

He said many suggested not to disturb the hornet’s nest called reservation but he did not care.

According to him,a person who has no human values must not run the State.The duty of the government is to ensure reservation in accordance with the population of every caste.

Goutham Buddha,Basavanna,Valmiki and Ambedkar are always his source of inspiration to provide social justice.

As the chief minister,he must understand the feelings of the last man in the society.As Father of the Nation,Mahatma Gandhi has rightly said, “remember their tears when you take decisions regarding dalits and oppressed classes”,he also wanted to do something for SC/ST communities.

The ensuing legal battle will be effectively fought. There must not be any delay when making decisions to ensure their constitutional rights.The government will consider all their demands on priority.

“You must not forget three principles taught by Dr Ambedkar,Education,Unity and agitation.Education is very important to enjoy your rights.Democracy will get its due importance if there is strength in organisation.

The constitution has allowed agitation for any lawful right.Some people are trying to create confusion over the historic decisions taken by the government.

We are working as per the Constitution.The government is committed to providing all basic amenities to Kanshiram Nagar,Bommai said.

Social Welfare Minister Kota Srinivasa Pujari,Water Resources Minister,Govind Karjol and others were present.
