The former Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa has said that the coming together of the BJP and Janata Dal(S) will help them win all the 28 Lok Sabha seats in the State.
Addressing presspersons in Hubballi on Wednesday, Mr. Yediyurappa said that as the Congress has failed in implementing its guarantee schemes and stopped earlier schemes launched by the BJP, there is an anti-Congress wave in the State that will help the BJP-Janata Dal(S) alliance sweep the Lok Sabha elections.
He said that under the Congress rule, the Kisan Samman scheme amount has been reduced as the Siddaramaiah government has stopped the additional ₹4,000 given by the State government. This proves that the Siddaramaiah government is anti-farmer, he added.
