The BJP is making baseless allegations against the Congress that it is following minority appeasement policies, Minister Santosh Lad said on Sunday.
“Some BJP leaders are going around saying that incidents like the Hubballi murder are happening because of the appeasement policies of the State government. What does it mean? It is a completely meaningless statement. The BJP is misusing such incidents to put the blame on the Congress,” he told reporters in Vijayapura.
“Has any Congress leader made such statements that support the accused in the Hubballi case? Has the Police Department not acted in time and apprehended the accused? It seems they do not consider reflecting on such questions,” he said.
