Haveri (Karnataka) [India], April 30 (Desk): Former chief minister and Gadag-Haveri Lok Sabha constituency BJP candidate Basavaraj Bommai warned voters of a revolution if Congress comes to power which is eyeing to implement an inheritance tax law.
“Beware! Congress means danger and if that party comes to power 55 per cent inheritance tax law will be implemented and enforcement of such law will create trouble,” said Basavaraj Bommai.
Addressing a series of campaigns in the Hirekerur Assembly constituency on Tuesday, he said, “Several irrigation schemes including Guddada Mallapura have been implemented by the BJP government but the sitting MLA had got the title of the popular MLA before he got elected to the Assembly. The BJP does not want popular legislators but people-friendly MLAs.”
He said, “The Prime Minister has provided vaccines to everyone during the COVID pandemic. Even the Congress leaders have taken the vaccine. To repay the favour of saving lives, we must vote for Modi. To repay Modi, who has provided water to every household, we must vote for the BJP. Modi, who provides 5 kg of rice to every family, must be voted for by the BJP. Every vote should be for making Modi the Prime Minister again.”
The Vidya Nidhi Scheme has been implemented for the children of weavers. But the Congress government stopped all the schemes.
Bommai said former minister BC Patil sacrificed power and got re-elected and developed Hirekerur taluk by bringing Rs 2,000 crore from the previous BJP government.
After the parliamentary election, there would be Assembly polls in Karnataka and Patil would get re-elected from Hirekerur. Patil might have lost in the assembly election but he has found a permanent place in the hearts of people.
Former minister BC Patil was present at the press conference.
The Lok Sabha election is being held in seven phases till June 1 and votes will be counted on June 4. The third phase election will be held on May 7. (Desk)
