Udupi: “BJP is talking about Sardar Vallabhai Patel? In case if he had become the prime minister he would have banned RSS. Jawaharlal Nehru withdrew his ban on RSS,” said Congress state election manifesto president Dr. M. Veerappa Moily.

He was speaking at a press conference on Friday and said that the Congress party functions on religion and justice.

“After NDA government had come to the centre, 95,000 crore ruppes have been stolen from the banks. Nonperforming assets were 2% in 2014 have now become 10%. Dr. Manmohan Singh had cancelled loans amounting to 13,000 crore rupees but the present government is only stealing. What has happened due to Modi’s tour from 55-60 countries? The situation of Indians in America has not improved. They have received the titles of being anti-dalit and anti-women in the country,” he said.

Answering to a question he said, “What right has Modi got to talk about Mallikarjuna Kharge? IT is an internal matter. We have made Kharge our leader in the opposition. How many states have a BJP dalit chief minister? BJP has lost at by-poll elections at Yogi Adityanath’s constituency and places like Rajasthan. In the next election, Congress will win under the leadership of Rahul Gandhi,” he said.
