Shah seeks support for BJP in Old Mysuru, calls Cong, JD(S) corrupt

Saturday, 31 December 2022 | PTI | Mandya

Hitting the ground running in poll-bound Karnataka, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday called Congress and JD(S) "parivaarvadi" (dynastic politics) and "corrupt", and urged the people of Mandya and Old Mysuru region to support the BJP in forming a government with majority in the state.

The BJP is considered to be weak in the Vokkaliga-dominated Old Mysuru region, and is focusing on this belt to gain complete majority in 2023 Assembly polls.

"Enough of JD(S)-Congress, Congress-JD(S). This time Mandya, the Mysuru region should make BJP win with full majority. Congress and JD(S) are both parivaarvadi (dynastic politics) parties, they are corrupt parties," Shah said.

Addressing a massive public meeting as part of the ongoing 'Janasankalpa Yatre' of the state BJP, he said: "We have seen administration of both parties. When Congress comes, Karnataka will become Delhi's ATM and when JD(S) comes, it becomes ATM for a family. Repeatedly, these two parties through corruption have stopped Karnataka's progress."

Stating that time has come to get free from dynastic politics and corruption, Shah asked people to give BJP an opportunity to form the government with a full majority once, and bring a "double engine" government in the state.

"In the next five years under the leadership of Modiji, we will take Karnataka much forward in the path of progress," he said, accusing both Congress and JD(S) of being "corrupt, communal and also protectors of criminals".
