Mangaluru: “Chief Minister Siddaramiah has put up hoardings claiming his government is a number one government. Yes Karnataka is number one; not in development, but in crimes like murder, robbery, rape and kidnapping”, said Union Minister of Parliamentary Affairs Anant Kumar. He was speaking at the closing of BJP Janasuraksha Yatra in central maidan of Mangaluru on Tuesday.

“Last 5 years, state has witnessed 7,700 murders, 9,400 robberies, 9181 dalit individuals harassed, 7,538 rapes, more than 35,000 cases of cheating and 11,900 kidnappings. This is not my calculation. This is your government’s calculation. Therefore Siddaramiah, please look at your face in the mirror”, said minister Hegde.

For only 15% minority votes, Congress government has ignored 85% Hindus thus following a anti-Hindu rule. Siddaramiah’s government has started annexing Maths and temples. If the government has guts, let it try to annex Matha’s and temples, he questioned. Continuous murders are taking place under the leadership of Siddaramiah, he said.

Addressing the gathered, BJP state President B.S. Yedyurappa said that BJP is committed to provide a clean, efficient and honest government. If BJP comes to power, all cases registered against Hindu workers will be taken back with 24 hours. Even more compensation will be given to the families of Hindu workers who have been murdered.

State opposition leader Jagadish Shettar said that Congress government in the state has crossed all limits of corruption and scandals and that he had never seen such an arrogant chief minister.

Congress government has taken back 175 cases booked against 1,600 workers of CDPI, CFI and KFD. By doing so the government has supported them. This has lead to the murder of more than 24 Hindu workers in the state, said state Yuva Morch President, MP Pratapsimha.

The state government under Siddaramiah’s leadership does not value the lives of Hindu’s. Goonda act has been used on BJP workers and Hindu groups by registering false cases based on false allegations, said MP Shobha Karandlaje.

Speaking to the gathered, MP Sriramalu said BS Yedyurappa will become the chief minister within 24 hours of BJP coming to power. He demands BSY to pull back all cases registered against all Hindu workers.

Siddhu government is a cow killing government. Congress government has insulted Hindu’s by repealing the anti-cow slaughter rule, within an hour of coming to power. Though cases have been registered against cow killers, none have been arrested so far, accused MP Nalin Kumar.
