BJP programmes are part of Congress manifesto: Karnataka CM Bommai

Training his guns at the Congress, Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai called the Congress’ manifesto “cheating,” claiming that most of the programmes were announced by the incumbent BJP government.
Speaking at the election campaign of BJP candidate MR Patil here, the CM said, “He has an emotional bond with this taluk as he spent most of his childhood days here in Kamadolli, Saunshi, and Gudageri. His father, former CM SR Bommai, had released nearly 30,000 acres of land to farmers in this taluk, and he had won the constituency as an independent candidate. The chilli crop is grown more in Kundagol, but the Byadgi chilli is the most famous across the world. From next year, arrangements will be made for the purchase of the chilli crop in Kundgol.” Bommaii said that on the one hand, the BJP is seeking votes based on patriotism and the country’s security, but on the other hand, the Congress Party has joined hands with anti-nationals to divide the nation.
He further said that the Congress party has done zero development all these years. Under the Kisan Sanman scheme, benefits had been distributed among 54 lakh farmers across the state, of whom 20,000 belonged to Kundgol taluk.
“This taluk has been denied development in the last 20 years. I have released a Rs 25 crore grant to the MLAs of all taluks without making any difference.
