Frustrated with a promise made by the Congress in its Lok Sabha election manifesto, the BJP was opposing the distribution of “guarantee cards” to the people by the party, said L. Hanumanthaiah, former MP.
Mr. Hanumanthaiah, who is also the co-chairman of the Congress campaign committee in Karnataka, said the Congress as well as BJP had come out with their respective manifestoes for the coming elections.
Claiming that the Congress manifesto was “pro-people”, Mr. Hanumanthaiah said the party had promised ₹1 lakh per annum to all eligible women belonging to the SC and ST communities in the country.
