K Annamalai, the leader of the Bharatiya Janata Party in Tamil Nadu, expressed confidence on Sunday that the ruling party would regain control of Karnataka’s State Assembly with a full majority.
Asserting that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has given everything for the southern states, he said, “The Prime Minister has given everything to all south Indian states: Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Telangana, etc., and here the workers are very clear to help PM Modi win with a full majority and 100 percent seats for him, but before that in 2023, we will get a full majority in Karnataka.” Hitting out at the Congress, the Tamil Nadu BJP president said that the grand old party only wants to satisfy its ego.
“Winning for them [Congress] is out of the question, whatever they are doing, it is to satisfy their ego,” he told the media. Annamalai said that BJP workers are in full excitement in Karnataka. “The party workers don’t expect anything. The workers in BJP are the greatest because they are not after power, post, or seat,” he said. “The workers, on the ground, are putting their head down working for the party because they work for an ideology and that worker cannot be shaken,” he added.
Taking note of the BJP’s candidates list he said, “The BJP has fielded new faces in the Karnataka elections and has taken a risk for the party workers only.”
