Karnataka Congress Releases Chargesheet Against Ruling BJP, Statewide Bus Yatra To Begin On Jan 11

For the bus yatra, two groups will be formed — one group will be led by Siddaramaiah while DK Shivakumar to head the other group.

With Assembly Elections in Karnataka just a few months away, the state Congress on Tuesday announced that they will begin a bus yatra — Prajadhwani Yatra — on Wednesday from Belagavi. The yatra will cover all 224 constituencies in the State, said Congress leader and former CM Siddaramaiah.

Meanwhile, they have also released a charge against BJP in the state. "They (BJP) formed the government through unethical means. So, we are going to take out a bus yatra which will cover all districts starting from Belagavi," said Siddaramaiah as quoted by news agency ANI.

While giving details of the yatra, the Congress leader said, "Two groups will be formed for the Congress bus yatra - one group to be headed by me and another by DK Shivakumar. Before the Assembly elections, we will cover all 224 constituencies in the State."

Failed policies of the double-engine BJP government have resulted in the drastic increase in the prices of essential commodities hurting the poor and middle-class people, said a Congress release. It has also caused great distress to the farmers in Karnataka, leading to the state becoming infamous for the second-highest number of farmer suicides in the country, the release pointed out.

The BJP government’s focus on 40 per cent commission has resulted in the death of more than 3.5 lakh Kannadigas during the pandemic and pushed innocent contractors to commit suicide.

With Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai acting as a puppet in the hands of BJP’s High Command, Congress will not let BJP run riot and destroy the lives of the people of Karnataka, read the release.

"As representatives of the people of Karnataka, witnessed your suffering and we’ll hold the BJP accountable for their crimes. The Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee is releasing BJP’s 'Paapada Purana' (An account of sins) to expose the failures of the BJP government, outlining their record of corruption, policy paralysis, and unfulfilled promises," said Congress in a release.

The Congress has assured to reach out to every Kannadiga through the 'Prajadhwani yatra'. The congress released the logo of the yatra, "We take this opportunity to release the logo of our campaign which will be the symbol of hope and a prosperous future for Karnataka."
