BJP plays Hindutva card in Karnataka, attacks Congress


Bengaluru, Apr 20 (IANS): The BJP on Thursday played the Hindutva card in poll-bound Karnataka, accusing the Congress of being "friends" with people who slaughtered a cow in public.

Talking to reporters here, Union Minister of State for Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare, Shobha Karandlaje, claimed that former Wayanad MP Rahul Gandhi and state Congress President D.K. Shivakumar took up the Bharat Jodo Yatra with persons who killed a cow on road.

"In the Mangaluru cooker blast case probe, Shivakumar and Siddaramaiah had claimed that the accused is like their brother. On whose side they are? The leadership of Shivakumar and Siddaramaiah protect the accused who indulge in activities against the country," she alleged.

Karandlaje said: "ISIS claimed responsibility for the blast and put up a post on the internet. But the Congress is protecting the accused."

With Karandlaje raking up such issues, high-voltage campaigns by Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and other firebrand leaders in the state are likely in the coming days.

The anti-cattle slaughter law enacted in Karnataka in 2021 bans transport, sale, trade and slaughter of cattle.

    Atleast now should BJP stop their slogan of cow and bla bla ,their Hindutwa ,always attacking other Parties.One should atleast now go forwards doing something towards their Party leaving others in peace..See what people want ,their problems of jobs or some water or housing problems for example.Only concentrating on religion isnt enough.Religion doesnt give food to eat or house to stay ,education to the children.Wake up people.

    RaGA is very vocal on RSS. But he makes a gen statement on PFI violence. MMS clearly said that 'muslim should have first preference to the national resources'. When a BJP leader points facts, then its communal.

    since nothing else to show on development or any other people friendly schemes, Bharat Jalao Party & RSS does whats only that party can do, DIVIDE .. creat CONFUSION.. & generate FEAR , infact RSS/BJP claim patent on these matters. In gujrat RSS/BJP released 11 convicts of rape/murder clearly indicating how SICK its mentality! people are struggling with high taxes..high gas/petrol prices.. & never ending unemployment but guess what RSS/BJP wont talk about these.!. lust of power/money is so much in gautamDas that his only concern is to retain power in the state by any means.he knows if he loses karnataka then 50% of cash coming to him lost & that 4th std failed chaiwalah never ever going to digest.

    Mrs. Shobha, who is exporting fresh cow meat to Foreign Countries it's Your Govt permitted right. Who is doing Hindutva and who are the Hindus of this country? don't understand for the election why dose other state people come to campaign for Kannadigas in Karnataka to make this state Hindhi for the future and sell off Nandini Milk to Amul. This is why Karnataka is lacking and supporting Hindhi UP Culture in Karnataka which to date nobody had the guts to do in Karnataka. But we people in Karnataka are bonded labor of the BJP to the North.

    They had never spoken on topics related to development. Infact they never liked India, never respected our Flag, our National Anthem, our constitution. A party born to spread hatred and lies. Wait and see how many innocent lives will be lost in a pre planned murder to win votes on sympathy.

    This ady ia a curse to the coastal Karnataka politics. What is her achievement as a central minister ? Her only job is to spit venom in the name of cow and appeasement politics. Only stereotype speeches from the time she has entered politics. Always trying to divide people based on religion.
