Modi a Paper Tiger, Providing Security to Corrupt People – Dinesh Gundu Rao

Mangaluru: “The Congress party has announced me as the KPCC president on July 4. After becoming the KPCC president this is my first visit to Mangaluru. The Congress party leaders along with former CM Siddaramaiah visited flood-affected Kodagu to review the loss in the disaster. Now the ULB elections are nearing and I am visiting Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts today. I am sure that the Congress party will win the ULB elections. People are aware of the development work done by the Congress government when we were in power and now with the coalition government we have continued all the schemes. Modi before coming to power assured many schemes but has failed to implement them. Modi is a tiger paper, he is providing security to the Corrupt people”, said KPCC president Dinesh Gundu Rao in a press’s meet held at the DCC office here on August 25.

Addressing the mediapersons Dinesh Gundu Rao said, “When the Congress government led by CM Siddaramaiah was in power we had given priority for the development of the state. We have fulfilled our promises which we had made during the elections. We had implemented various people-friendly schemes when we were in power. Now we have a coalition government in the state and all the schemes made earlier have been continued. We are working for the welfare of the people of the state and the coalition government will complete five years in the state. At the same time, the BJP government led by Narendra Modi had also promised to do justice with the farmers, get the black money back to India etc. But after completing four years in power, Modi has failed to fulfill the promises he had made.”

Dinesh further said, “At present, we are concentrating on ULB elections and I am sure we will win the majority of the seats. We will go to the people and bring awareness among the schemes the Congress government has implemented for the people. For the MP elections, we have so far not decided the candidates. Meetings will be held with the party leaders to finalize our candidates. We need to prepare for the forthcoming elections and the party will select the candidates”.

When asked even after implementing many schemes and doing a lot of development work, why did the Congress candidates lose in DK? Dinesh Gundu Rao said, “We are working on finding the reason for the loss”.

When asked about whether the Congress will support the use of EVMs in next elections, Dinesh Gundu Rao said, “The AICC will decide”.

Stressing on the failures of BJP Government led by PM Modi, Gundu Rao said, “Before coming to power Modi had promised of creating jobs for the youth and strengthen the economy saying that Development was his priority. But he has failed to keep his promises, he failed to create jobs for the youth nor has he been able to strengthen the economy of the country. But during his tenure, we have seen the killing of leftist thinkers such as Gauri Lankesh, Dabolkar, Pansare and Kalburgi. Even the names of Girish Karnad and Veerabhadra Chennamalla Swamiji of Nidumamidi Math have been mentioned in the hit list. After the BJP came to power we have been seeing cold-blooded murders of leftist thinkers. The BJP government has also failed to provide justice to the Kathua and Unao rape victims.”

Minister for Housing and Urban Development U T Khader, DCC President Harish Kumar, former MLA J R Lobo, MLC Ivan D’Souza, Mayor Bhaskar K and others were also present.
