Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Monday accused the ruling BJP and RSS of attacking democracy and spreading hatred and violence in the country.
Addressing a public meeting here, he alleged that the BJP and RSS are attacking Basavanna’s ideals of equal partnership and that everyone should move ahead together. Expressing confidence about the Congress coming to power, Gandhi said the party government’s first cabinet meeting will take a decision on implementing its poll guarantees. On coming to power in the state, the Congress party announced four poll ‘guarantees: 200 units of free power to all households (Gruha Jyoti), Rs 2,000 in monthly assistance to the woman head of every family (Gruha Lakshmi), 10 kg of free rice to every member of a BPL household (Anna Bhagya), and Rs 3,000 every month for graduate youth and Rs 1,500 for diploma holders (both in the age group of 18–25) for two years (YuvaNidhi).
Suggesting that BJP uses the money (allegedly) looted from people through corruption to buy MLAs, Gandhi urged people to ensure that Congress wins at least 150 seats because they (BJP) will make attempts to buy MLAs.
Gandhi also urged the Prime Minister Narendra Modi to release the 2011 census’ caste-based OBC categorisation data in the public domain and also demanded the 50 percent cap on reservations be removed.
