Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national president JP Nadda on Monday spoke to India TV and launched a scathing attack on the Congress party. Nadda asserted that BJP will secure a majority and form the government in Karnataka.
“We will win the elections by full majority. In these four years, Yediyurappa and Bommai's government has done a lot of work,” said party chief in an exlusive interview with India TV.
“Congress for the sake of vote bank indulges in appeasement politics despite knowing that our Constitution doesn’t provide for reservation based on religion,” Nadda added.
Nadda reacted to Sonia Gandhi's ‘Karnataka sovereignty’ remark and said, "...this is a result of Congress party's mental bankruptcy. To say anything for the sake of votes is condemnable...They have always stood with 'Tukde Tukde' gang. Those who stand with such people will use such words."
The election schedule for the 224-member Karnataka Legislative Assembly was announced by Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar on March 29. On May 10, the state will go to the polls, and on May 13, the votes will be counted.
The date for voting in the elections for the 224-member Karnataka Assembly is May 10, and the results will be announced three days later.
