‘Did He Think that I was Dead, So He Could Lie About Me’- Congress Leader Janardhan Poojary

 

‘Did He ( Harish Kumar- DK Congress Committee President) Think that I was Dead, So He Could Lie About Me’- Senior Congress Leader Janardhan Poojary

Mangaluru : Tit-for-tat, following a press meet held yesterday at the Congress office in Mallikatta, Mangaluru, where DK Dist Congress Committee President Harish Kumar had said that the final selection of all the 60 contestants on Congress ticket for MCC Council elections on 12 November 2019, (Ref: ‘We will WIN the Elections, & Congress will be at Helm of MCC again’- Harish Kumar ), Senior Congress leader Janardhan Poojary during a press meet held at Mangaluru Press Club, lashing at Harish Kumar said, “Did He think that I was dead, so he could lie about me. I am pretty much alive, and therefore I am here to put a bunch of congress people into shame”

“Through my people I heard that during a press meet held at the congress office on Monday, 4 November , Harish Kumar had stated that I had approved all the 69 candidates contesting for the MCC council elections, which is 100% not True, and totally false, which has hurt em a lot. No where I was involved in any selection of the Congress candidates, nor anyone came to me for my approval on all these 60 contestants. I am totally ashamed of this person to make such false statement, when I was not involved” added Poojary.

He further said, “For making such false remarks on me, I want the concerned person to apologize by this evening ( 5 November) and state that my presence was not involved in the selection or approval of 60 candidates names. Congress never taught us to lie. And if they failed to do so, they are going to face severe consequences from my side, which I don’t want to say now, as to what action I would be taking. I will not spare him, until I am alive. When the elections were announced, I had personally called the head of the election committee and had requested him to make the right selection, other than that I was not involved in any other issues. I do agree that many selected had come to me for my blessings, which I obliged, but surely not as to what Harish Kumar mentioned”.

” This is not the First time that I have involved in elections, I have seen winning and losing, but never seen such kind of games the present congress representatives are playing to gain votes, by incorporating my name in between, which I am totally upset and disappointed at the behaviour of these people. Also sad to note that while selection of candidates were made, they had totally forgotten the Mogaveera community, which will hurt the congress party big time” added Poojary. When a journo questioned Poojary as to what happened to a great relationship that he and Harish Kumar had earlier, for which Poojary replied, “It’s all because of greedy for power and higher post, which has led to all these controversies”.

Poojary even slammed at former CM Siddaramaiah saying that he is a “Shani” for the Congress party, and that the High Command is going on a wrong direction for giving him higher post in the congress party, which will lead to the collapse of congress party under Siddaramaiah’s leadership. Congress leaders Kallige Tharanath Shetty, Vijaya Kumar Shetty, were among others present on the dais during the press meet.
