In his first media conference after the BJP’s electoral debacle in Karnataka, Mysuru MP Pratap Simha demanded that the guarantee schemes announced by the Congress during the election campaign should be implemented without conditions.
Speaking to mediapersons in Mysuru on May 25, Mr. Simha said that the Congress will be given time till June 1 to implement the schemes without any strings or conditions attached, failing which the BJP will take to the streets.
‘’During the election campaign both Siddaramaiah and D.K. Shivakumar repeatedly said, in every speech, that 200 units of power would be free, and they did not imply that there were any conditions, then. Hence, they should not introduce conditions now. People have voted for the Congress because of the 5 guarantee schemes, and these schemes should be implemented without delay or conditions to benefit all,” said Mr. Simha.
