Congress will be left holding the empty container after elections, says Vijayendra

BJP State president B.Y. Vijayendra said here on Sunday that Congress will be left holding empty pots or containers once the Lok Sabha election results are out.

Speaking to media persons, Mr. Vijayendra referred to the newspaper advertisements issued by the Congress laced with sarcasm that the BJP’s contribution and promises to the State was hollow. The advertisement depicted an empty container and was referred to as ‘’chambu’’ which in colloquial Kannada means hollow or bare.

Mr. Vijayendra said the advertisement is a reflection of the state of the Congress once the election results are announced and it will be left holding the empty containers. He said the mood across the State was in favour of the BJP and people wanted a third term for Narendra Modi as Prime Minister. The Congress has sensed which way the wind was blowing and was desperate, he added.
