Bengaluru: Siddu launches 'CM Talks' app, says Cong will win despite BJP-JD(S) secret deal


From Our Special Correspondent
Daijiworld Media Network - Bengaluru

Bengaluru, Apr 22: Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah on Saturday claimed that the opposition BJP and JD(S) parties have worked out a secret deal to grab power realising that they were on the losing side in the May 12 Assembly elections in the State.

The BJP and JD(S) have already working out a strategy of forming a coalition government but it is nothing but an 'illusion' as Congress party is poised to win a clear majority and retain power, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said on Saturday.

Speaking at the release of reality mobile app ‘CM Talks’ in Bengaluru on Saturday, he said the two parties had realised that they were not in a position to gain majority as Congress was on a surge to retain power.

"BJP has nothing to claim on the achievements either at the centre or in the States ruled by that party. They have not harped on a single positive issue of the union government which is in power for the last four years. So they are resorting to reeling out ‘lies’ against my government," he said.

"Now they are working out a strategy to form a coalition government with JD(S). But it is nothing but an illusion and they will realise it soon," he said.

On prospects of JD(S), Siddaramaiah rejected it as a ‘regional outfit’.

"This party (JD(S) does not have pan-Karnataka presence and at the best can win a few seats in selected districts like it did before. So its performance will end there," he said.

He said people will vote Congress back to power as the party had given transparent and clean governance with the sole agenda for development. ‘

"The party is now working on how to take Karnataka further forward during the next five years. Peace has prevailed in the state under Congress rule. I am confident that people are impressed with my rule and vote my party to power again," he said.

Siddaramaiah said he had already informed the party high command that he would contest only from his home segment Chamundeshwari. But party leaders and others were bringing pressure on the high command to nominate me from a second segment in the region like Badami.

"I will go by the direction of the High Command," he said.

He said he had campaigned in Chamundeshwari for the past two days and the peoples’ reaction was very good. He had contested for seven times in this segment and won five times. But the people reaction was best this time.

On BJP leader Prakash Javdekar’s claim that his party had evidence to prove corruption in Congress government, Siddaramaiah challenged him to provide at least one conclusive evidence.

"They are speaking only against me as they have nothing to claim after Modi government had completed four years but achieved little. What lessons can we learn from this corrupt BJP which is projecting most tainted B S Yeddyurappa as its chief ministerial candidate," he asked.

 

'CM Talks' app to help Siddaramaiah to connect to people

A first of its kind in India, an augmented reality political campaign app ‘CM Talk’ was launched by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and AICC General Secretary K C Venugopal in Bengaluru on Saturday.

The interactive app enables users to watch messages from Siddaramaiah by just pointing at his posters.

"The app will combine the technological prowess of Karnataka and the CM’s wish to connect more effectively with the people of the state," said K C Venugopal at a launch event.

"We will use the CM Talks Campaign App to ensure the development done by our government reaches people," said Siddaramaiah.

Siddaramaiah also tweeted about the app, "Happy that @INCKarnataka scripts yet another first today, with the launch of an
innovative augmented reality app #CMTalks! Exciting to see the power of technology helping us connect with people from across the state. Looking forward to interact with you".


Venugopal hinted that Siddaramaiah may contest from North Karnataka, and said that he is getting thousands of calls from the party workers demanding the same. He added that Yeddyurappa plans to contest against Siddaramaiah and he welcomes the step as Congress is sure to win.

    Even using that app will not help because the reason for not getting sleep is because BJP is going to lose heavily and for that there is no treatment.

    This C.M speaks App will do miracles because BJP has brain washed people of young India by creating false profiles through paid local and foreign agencies by paying them a hefty price and succeeded so far and now their game is over after the truth became public of Cambridge Analytica.

    This is the begining of their downfall and souhern coastal waves will spread throughout north,south,east & west of India gradually.
    DAAKHU is presently focussing only to "steal Kannadiga's peace" by all means but all goes in vain even if he remains in Karnataka day in & day out till the counting day of 15th May,2018.

    You can't fool all the people at all the times!!!.

    All the very best to the hard-working CM. There is no other better choice other than the present CM at the present circumstances and the voters have to decide if they want development and equal treatment then they have to choose the one who is presently shown some improvement in the state and not like the northern part where there are everyday news on killings for dowry and rapes and also farmers suicide
