BJP like a Bogie that has lost control, Indira Canteen will start in Mangaluru by Nov 1- Ivan D’Souza

Mangaluru: “The state BJP leaders have started their agitation by holding Vidhana Soudha Chalo, demanding the resignation of D K Shivakumar and Ramesh Jarakiholi because of the IT department raid on their houses and saying that they and the state government is corrupt. Even Kota Srinivas Poojary in Kundapur said that the state government is in deep slumber. But we are suspicious of the BJP and their attitude. BJP leaders like DVS, Yeddyurappa, Shobha Karandlaje, Srinivas Poojary who say that the state government is in deep slumber should be more concerned about their own party and where they stand. I think the BJP is like a bogie that has lost control”, said chief Whip Ivan D’Souza in a press meet held at the District Congress Office Mallikatta here on August 17.

Addressing the mediapersons Ivan said, “The BJP state leaders want their leaders from Delhi to come to Karnataka and tell them to hold protests against the state government. BJP leader Amit Shah needs to come to the state to wake up Yeddyurappa and Sadananda Gowda and tell them to hold protests. The BJP does not have any concern of the people. They have lost direction to fight against the Congress, they waited for Amit Shah to come to Karnataka to fight against the Congress. After Amit Shah’s order, BJP is holding the Vidhana Soudha Chalo. They should clarify on the delay to protest against the Congress led State government.”

Ivan further said, “The BJP has announced the person who has gone to jail in 42 cases of corruption of becoming the next CM. What a shame? What morality has the BJP to talk about the corruption of Congress. The IT raid is nothing but to check whether tax has been paid for the assets they hold, which is not corruption. When the corrupt people talk about corruption, people will not believe them. Protests are being carried out by the BJP on the advice of Amit Shah, they will not succeed. Amit Shah also said that if such a situation continues BJP will not get more than 50 seats. Amit Shah has lectured the BJP state leaders for hours together to wake up from the deep slumber and work for the party.”

Ivan also said, “The state government started the Indira Canteen for which thousands of people gathered for the inaugural but the BJP leaders did not attend the programame. This shows that they are not with the people. BJP has been criticizing the state government’s projects. When more than 3.5 lakh people are benefitting from the Indira canteen the BJP is criticizing the government. By November 1, 2017, the Indira canteen will start in Mangaluru. Many people who do not get proper food in Mangaluru will benefit from the Indira Canteen.”

District Congress President Harish Kumar, Amrit Kadri, Shawad Goonadka and others were also present.
