Mangaluru : The state government is not performing its administration well. The BJP aims to free Karnataka from Congress said, party General Secretary in charge of Karnataka affairs P. Muralidhar Rao here on Monday Dec.1.

Speaking in a press conference in Mangaluru, Mr. Rao said, `After the BJP’s victory in Maharashtra and Haryana, the important state that is feeding Congress in its corrupt politics is Karnataka. The party’s objective is how to free Karnataka from Congress.”

The party will hold a massive protest in Belagavi on December 9 when the state legislature begins its session, he said.

Further he said the party was aggressively consolidating its position across regions, including in the state. It was aimed at making it the world’s largest political party by March 31, overtaking the Communist Party of China. A crore members have been enrolled, he said.

Asked about tainted leaders in his own party’s state unit, Mr. Rao said those facing charges but not convicted by a court of law cannot be called tainted. Prime Minister Narendra Modi regularly reviewed the situation, he said.

To another question on the Congress charges against the NDA government, Mr. Rao said that the party still had a lot to learn as an opposition party. If it stalls passage of important bills in the Rajya Sabha where it has the numbers, it would be thrown out of there, too, as in the Lok Sabha, he said.
