“The BJP is a party that plays politics over bodies. The people of this country are peace loving. They will never support such politics,” Minister and Congress leader Lakshmi Hebbalkar said on Sunday.
“BJP leaders are busy in dividing society on communal lines. They tend to politically benefit from any disturbance in law and order. They use the bodies of innocent victims to play politics. However, the people of this country are peace loving. They will never support such politics,” she said in Hanchinal village in Belagavi district.
“The Congress, on the other hand, is a party of the poor and deprived. It believes in creating equal opportunities. Whenever the Congress has come to power, it has strived to create equal opportunities for people of all classes. Deprived communities like SCs/STs, OBCs and minorities have got opportunities to rise and join the mainstream. The Congress is a party of peace and harmony. We value the sentiments of the people,” she said.
