Inciting backward classes: CM Siddaramaiah lashes out at PM Modi

Inciting backward classes: CM Siddaramaiah lashes out at PM Modi Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah lashed out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi for inciting the Backward class communities against Muslims. He addressed the huge public meeting in Rabakavi Banahatti and called upon the people to ensure the victory of Bagalkote Congress Lok Sabha candidate Samyukta Patil. After the first phase of elections to 102 Lok Sabha constituencies in the country, Modi has clearly got the hint that the BJP will lose. For this reason, he is telling terrible lies. He is inciting the backward classes against the Muslims by telling the lie that the reservation of the backward classes will be taken away to give it to the Muslims. He warned the backward caste-communities to be careful, he said. Modi also lied about reservation. He has no knowledge of the Constitution, CM said. CM Siddaramaiah said that it was the BJP that opposed the Mandal report. It is the same BJP that opposed the Mandal report and instigated the backward classes to resort to suicide. Rama Jois (Former Governor of Bihar) is from BJP who went to court against the reservation of backward classes. It was the same BJP that protested when women were given reservation in local bodies, he added. The voting on 14 seats was held on April 26 in Karnataka alongside 12 other states/Union Territories. In the second phase, the voting was held in 88 Lok Sabha constituencies across 13 States, in Union Territory, including 13 in Rajasthan, 20 in Kerala, eight in Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh, five each in Assam and Bihar, six in Madhya Pradesh, three each in Chhattisgarh and West Bengal, and one each in Tripura, Manipur, and Jammu and Kashmir.

Welfare for All, Privileges for None: Congress's Commitment to Social Justice

Welfare for All, Privileges for None: Congress's Commitment to Social Justice Congress candidate from Chandigarh parliamentary constituency Manish Tewari on Saturday said that unlike the Bharatiya Janata Party, his party believes in mass welfare and not privileges for a select few. ''Public welfare was and will always remain our topmost priority and preference irrespective of what our opponents say about it,'' Tewari asserted during an interaction with the people while campaigning in the Union Territory. Accompanied by several Congress leaders and workers, including Chandigarh Congress president HS Lucky, Tewari toured various parts of the city and talked to the people about the problems they are facing. Tewari, the sitting MP from Anandpur Sahib constituency in Punjab, pointed out that the Congress poll manifesto, named 'Nyay Patra,' is a manifesto designed for the masses of the country with its ''five commandments for justice.'' Tewari said that during the last ten years the BJP created a ''select and privileged group of crony capitalists,'' while the Congress guarantees justice to the youth, farmers, women, and workers. The former Union minister claimed that the unemployment in the county at present is the highest in 45 years. He also wondered what happened to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's promise of creating 2 crore jobs every year. ''By that count, there should have been twenty crore jobs generated by now,'' Tewari said. Instead, he said, the government ''failed'' to fill 30 lakh vacancies pending across government departments. The politician, who is a lawyer by profession, said his party will give Rs 1 lakh to one woman per family to bring that family out of poverty. The Congress has done it in the past with the Food Security Act and the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA), which revolutionised rural employment, he said. Tewari claimed that even after last year's victories in Karnataka and Telangana, the Congress fulfilled all its guarantees, directly benefiting the common people and not just a privileged few. Polling for the lone Chandigarh seat will take place on June 1.

Modi calls Uddhav 'fake Shiv Sena' in Kolhapur poll rally; claims INDIA bloc wants 'One year, One PM'

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday took a swipe at former Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, labelling his party as fake Shiv Sena and claiming that his father Bal Thackeray would be disheartend for aligning with INDIA bloc members Congress and the DMK. Addressing a public rally in Maharashtra's Kohlapur, Modi said that fake Shiv Sena was walking shoulder to shoulder with Congress and the DMK, which has abused Sanatan Dharma and that Bala Saheb must be upset seeing these activities. The DMK party, which is very special to Congress, is abusing Sanatan Dharma. They are saying that the Sanatan Dharma is dengue and malaria. And the INDI Alliance invites them to Maharashtra and honours those who speak of destroying Sanatan... What must Bala Saheb feel after seeing this?... Fake Shiv Sena is walking shoulder-to-shoulder with these people... Bala Saheb must have been very upset with this. Wherever his soul is, it must be upset seeing these activities, Modi claimed. Uddhav Thackeray's Shiv Sena (UBT) has been a member of the Maha Vikas Aghadi alliance alongside the Congress and the NCP(SP) since 2019. It is also part of the INDIA bloc, which includes the DMK as another member. Meanwhile, the prime minister also claimed that the INDIA bloc have devised the 'One year, One PM' formula, by which they were planing to have five prime ministers in five years if voted to power. If they get a chance for five years, then there will be five different PMs. However, the nation will not tolerate this. That's why they are showing their anger towards the nation, he claimed.

In pic.twitter.com/C1KjoSwoJX Press Trust of India (@PTI_News) April 27, 2024 In Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, Congress and INDI alliance leaders are demanding a separate nation by splitting South India. Will the land of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj ever accept this? PM Modi questioned. Further, raking up the politics around reservation, PM Modi said that the Congress always insulted Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar and claimed that they (Congress) wants to change the Constitution and rob Dalits, OBCs of quota benefits for religion-based reservation. Modi said the Congress wants to extend the Karnataka model wherein Muslims were inducted in the 27 per cent quota for OBCs, in the entire country. The Congress-led alliance has vowed to murder social justice, he said and accused the Congress of stooping low for appeasement and vote bank politics. Targeting Rahul Gandhi over wealth distribution, Modi said, The Congress shehzade wants to search your wealth and distribute it to those who the party had said to have the first right on the country's resources. The Congress wanted to impose inheritance tax and rob people of their inheritance. Such people shouldn't get even a slight chance of coming to power, he added. Modi also claimed that the Congress' new agenda is to reinstate Artcile 370 in Kashmir. When the Congress and its friends realised that they cannot compete with NDA's track record of development, they changed their strategy. They are using anti-national agendas and appeasement. Now, Congress' agenda is that they will reinstate Article 370 in Kashmir, he said.
