The BJP on Tuesday claimed that the “objectionable” remarks of some Congress leaders including Kannada and Culture Minister Shivaraj Tangadagi against it was an indication that the Congress leaders were becoming frustrated ahead of the Lok Sabha polls.
“The Congress leaders are frustrated that Mr. Modi is set to become Prime Minister for the third time. Hence, they are resorting to attack through vendetta-filled remarks. But these remarks will boomerang on them,” BJP leader C.T. Ravi said at a press conference in Bengaluru.
He took exception to the reported remarks of Mr. Tangadagi that Congress workers should be asked to slap youth if they praise Mr. Modi. He also expressed displeasure over the episode of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah allegedly cursing the BJP.
