JP Nadda, national president of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), claimed on Sunday that the Congress “encourages riots” in society whenever the party gains power.
Nadda told a public rally in the poll-bound state of Karnataka that the BJP-led government is committed to working for the development of the state’s poor, farmers, and women.
“Our government is committed to working for the development of the poor, farmers, and women of the state. We have empowered the woman of the state. Whenever Congress comes to power, it encourages riots in society,” he said.
Further attacking the Congress, Nadda said, “I have been asking for the past 5 days – why do they not give an answer on the big scams during the Siddaramaiah government? DK Shivakumar is out on bail – why do they not answer it? How do they get the courage to speak on corruption? People of Karnataka know everything well.”
Concerning the reservation issue that has sparked controversy in the state, Nadda stated that if the reservation for the SC community is increased by 2%, the reservation for the tribal community will be increased by 4%.
“Our government is working to advance the villages, poor, deprived, afflicted, exploited, Dalits, women, and farmers. If we are talking about economic development, then we have also given importance to social justice from a social point of view. If we increase the reservation of SC brothers by 2 per cent then we increase the reservation of tribal brothers by 4 per cent”, he said.
The BJP chief in the speech also said that India has overtaken Japan to become the third-largest automobile market.
“9 years ago, 92 per cent of mobiles in India used came from China and other countries. Today, under PM’s leadership, 97 per cent of mobiles are now being made in India. We used to know Japan for automobiles, today India has overtaken Japan to become the third largest automobile market”, he said.
