Home Minister Amit Shah trained his guns on the Congress party for its promise to restore the 4 per cent reservation for Muslims that had been scrapped by the BJP government recently.
Mr. Shah, who conducted a roadshow in Gundlupet on Monday, told a gathering of people from atop the campaign vehicle that the Congress party practices the politics of appeasement.
He said the BJP government in the State had removed the 4 per cent quota to Muslims in government employment and admission to higher education institutions while increasing the reservation for Lingayats, Vokkaligas, besides Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes.
