Have the youth chanting 'Modi' really got anything from the Modi: HDK

Udupi: “The BJP is projecting as if there is no one other than Modi to protect our country. People from the coast who are educated must elect the right candidate. Few youth on the road chant ‘Modi Modi’ slogans but have they really got anything from the Modi led central government? Indira Gandhi, Lal Bahadur Shatri and Vajpayee too have protected the nation. The real credit must go to our forces. BJP and Modi must not use forces for electoral gains,” said Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy after inaugurating party workers meet here at Karkala on Sunday, April 7.

“Institutions in Mangaluru are under threat due to Modi rule. Vijaya Bank is merged with Bank of Baroda and Dena Bank. Former PM Deve Gowda has contributed for the development of Vijaya Bank,” said the CM who visited Karkala to campaign for the Congress-JD(S) alliance candidate for the Udupi-Chikkamagaluru Lok Sabha constituency, Pramod Madhwaraj.

Pulwama attack

Clarifying that he never spoke about the Pulwama attack, Mr Kumaraswamy said, “Two years ago, a retired officer had spoken about possible war-like situation when elections are nearing. That is what I told,” he explained.

Mandya politics

Speaking on Mandya politics the CM noted that that there is an attempt to defeat JD(S) in Mandya and said, “Attempts by others to defeat us will not be successful. Our candidate in Mysuru and Mandya will definitely win,” he said confidently.
