The BJP has sharply rebuked the Congress for describing the electoral battle in Mysuru Lok Sabha constituency as a contest between “commoner and an erstwhile royal.”
At a press conference on Friday, the Congress candidate M. Lakshman also asked the voters if they have to choose between a commoner like him who mingles with the public and will safeguard their welfare or someone lives in the confines of the palace.
In response, the BJP spokesperson M.A. Mohan said here on Saturday that Mr. Lakshman’s choice of words smacked of coarseness and it would be in fitness of things for the Congress candidate to “maintain decorum” in public.
