Seeking votes in Modi’s name shows political bankruptcy: Harikrishna Bantwal

Mangalore : "The Dakshina Kannada District BJP is seeking votes in the name of Narendra Modi. It is not seeking votes for MP candidate Nalin Kumar Kateel or for the party. This shows the political bankruptcy of the party as well as its fears,” said Harikrishna Bantwal, senior Congress leader.
 
Addrressing the press persons on Harikrishna said "BJP party members are spreading rumours about Poojary’s statement where he asked Modi to contest from Dakshina Kannada District. They have failed to understand the meaning of the particular statement. The congress party men have never sought votes in the name of Sonia Gandhi or Rahul Gandhi unlike BJP which is seeking votes in the name of Modi.It is quite surprising that even Nalin Kumar Kateel is seeking votes for him."
 
Complaint to EC

"BJP has alleviated Narendra Modi’s status to that of a god. Even though the poll conduct is in place they are distributing calendars which have pictures of gods. Even pamphlets are being distributed. These pamphlets have no details of publishers, printers and also number of copies. A complaint against the same will be given to the Election Commission within two days,” said Kallige Taranath Shetty, spokesperson.

"Nalin Kumar should publicize about the developmental works undertaken by him during his tenure. The Centre has formulated many people welfare schemes, Nalin Kumar should tell through the media as to how many projects have been implemented. If not we will get the documents through RTI,"he challenged.

"It is being said that Gujarat is a developed State. But the people in rural areas of the State are struggling due to lack of drinking water. 90 per cent of the Primary Health Care Centre don’t have doctors. Health sector is not being given prominence in that State. We have received information about the same through Internet,"Harikrishna said.
