Hubballi: “In this election, the communal forces should be stopped, or else if they return to power, the survival of the society or state will become difficult, and civil wars will begin,” said the Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Assembly Siddaramaiah.
Addressing the crowd after inducting many JD(S) workers into the Congress party, Siddaramiah stated that Dalits and minorities are living in fear in the state, and those who should be protecting their lives and properties are giving inflammatory speeches inciting violence, without naming Minister Ashwath Narayan, who has called on people to “finish off” Siddaramaiah like Tipu Sultan.

In his address to former JD(S) workers, the veteran Congress leader blamed the JD(S) for the BJP’s growth in the state.If Kumaraswamy did not have an alliance with them, they could not have grown to this extent. They (the JDS) formed the government with them, and now they are claiming to be “seculars,” he said, demonstrating the JD(S) party’s dual standard.
Let the police register a suo moto case.
Condemning Minister CN Ashwath Narayan’s statement against him, Siddaramaiah demanded that the police open a suo moto case against him. “What Ashwath Narayan said was an offense,” Siddaramaiah told reporters on the sidelines of the meeting here on Thursday.

When scribes informed the leader that the minister had already expressed regret over his remark, Siddaramaiah said, “What does it mean to finish off like Tipu Sultan?” “Does he not understand the basic principles of the Constitution?”
“Violence is the culture of the BJP,” he said. “I am not surprised over Ashwath Narayan’s remarks; those party men killed Mahatma Gandhi; what else can one expect? “The statement reflects Ashwath Narayan’s mentality,” said Siddaramaiah.
Siddaramaiah expressed concern over the issues dominating the election dominating, there should be discussions about the poor, SCs, STs, and OBCs, but if the BJP wants to polarize society, it should state in its agenda that the next election would be fought on Tipu against Savarkar. The general public would not encourage or support them.
