Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, declared on Sunday that his party would work to rescue Karnataka from the “40% commission government” of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
In a Facebook post, Rahul said, “Basavanna-ji’s teachings of love, humility and compassion are deeply ingrained in every Kannadiga’s DNA and has left a lasting impression on all of us who walked for the better future of India during the Bharat Jodo Yatra.” “The BJP is exploiting the vast potential of the people of the state for its own gain. We will ensure Karnataka is freed from the clutches of the 40 per cent Commission BJP Sarkar.
Can’t wait to be back today, to listen, learn and formulate a new vision of governance together with the people of the state. Congress Baralide, Pragati Taralide,” Rahul added.
Yediyurappa declared during a press conference that “We will return to power under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. They falsely accuse Congress of being corrupt and the 40% commission, among other things. Such accusations won’t be able to influence the voters’ decisions.
“Only the BJP has leaders like PM Narendra Modi and Amit Shah, who are welcomed by the people of Karnataka in huge numbers. I am 100 per cent sure that the BJP will win Karnataka again with a clear majority,” he said.
