A day after the convention in Mysuru where leaders from the BJP and the JD(S) joined the Congress, M. Lakshman, Congress candidate for Mysuru Lok Sabha constituency formally launched his election campaign in Mysuru on Thursday after a puja atop the Chamundi hills along with the party leaders and his supporters.
Displaying a pamphlet for his campaign, he said the five guarantees implemented by the Congress government will work in his favour. “There is a Congress wave in the State as the government implemented all five guarantees in ten months. The party has fulfilled its promises,” he stated.
Lashing out at the BJP for its “divisive politics”, he said the Congress is straightforward and does what it preaches. The BJP is unable to spread lies about our guarantees as the benefits have reached the people and supporting their families. “We are seeking votes on development that has been done besides the guarantees.”
