Udupi: Several Congress leaders eager to join BJP, says MP Shobha Karandlaje


Daijiworld Media Network – Udupi (HB/EP)

Udupi, May 10: "With state Assembly elections approaching, several Congress leaders are showing an inclination to join BJP. There is still a year for elections, so I do not intend on disclosing their names just yet. Many are in contact with us. Many changes will take place in politics after December this year. Leaders from other political parties will join BJP. There will be specific changes in Karnataka under the leadership of Narendra Modi and Yeddyurappa," said MP Shobha Karandlaje.

She was speaking to reporters here on the sidelines of a programme at Kunjarigiri in Kaup here on Wednesday May 10.

Commenting on reports that Congress leader Vishwanath may soon leave the party and join the J (S), she said, "Vishwanath is fed up with Congress. He was the one who brought Siddaramaiah into Congress, made him party leader, leader of the opposition and was later instrumental in making him the chief minister. However, there is a feeling among both the old and the new Congress leaders that Siddaramaiah is kicking the ladder by which he climbed to the top. The feelings will explode in the days to come," she said.

On former BBMP corporator Bomb Naga in whose house police had found Rs 25 crore in demonetised currency, she retorted, "The power of the government is protecting Bomb Naga. There should be an investigation into it. How can the Karnataka government nab terrorists and traitors if they cannot arrest a rowdy?

"The role played by Congress leaders and Siddaramaiah and the people who deposited money in Bomb Naga's cash box should come to light. The truth will be revealed if the case is handed over to the CBI. Therefore, Siddaramaiah should maintain transparency when working on this case. It is a multi-crore scam. From where did he get such a huge amount of cash? Who is protecting him? I urge the government to hand over the case to the CBI," she said.

    In K'Nataka, every local leader has a vote bank well protected on caste and community lines. Hence all such leaders are sought like hot cakes during run up to elections. What BJP is trying to do to Congress, JD(S) is trying to do to BJP and Congress is trying to do with JD(S). Its a merry go round all the way!

    In almost all his rallies, BJP president Amit Shah has reiterated the slogan of a ‘Congress-mukt Bharat’, claiming that the party is going to rid the country of the Congress. But instead of a Congress-mukt, or free, India, the BJP seems to be aiming at a Congress-yukt India – one filled with Congress men and women. Most of the leaders the party rode to victory with in the recent elections were formerly Congress members.

    BJP is dearth of good leaders. From PM Modi's to 'burnol' sales team social media army of BJP blames 70 years of past Congress ruling for the fate of the nation. When it comes to their leader they openly acknowledge them with garlands. No matter it old age N D Tiwari in scam or SM Krishna. All is well as long as 'operation kamala' can afford to buy them.

    Jai Hind

    shobakke suddenly becomes active and giving highly spirited fresh meet. what way she is defending and concerned with vishwanath's joining JDS. is she having secret meeting with him . if he joining BJP
    then she got every right to speak about him.she again talks BOMB NAGA and his misdeeds, but very soon in the next press meet she will announce Bomb Naga will join BJP. Se traveled to kunjargir via padubidiri and she failed to observe still the highway work in padubirdi town not completed. why she not taken this issue with yedurappa and modi. one can observe how her mind set in negative form instead with progressive ideas.
