Eddelu Karnataka, a group of writers and activists, including Devanur Mahadeva, G.N. Devy, and Yogendra Yadav, have issued an appeal to the people of the State to defeat the BJP in the upcoming elections.
Eddelu Karnataka issued three guidelines in their appeal: no vote must be wasted, care must be taken to ensure votes must not be divided, and only candidate who is best placed to defeat BJP should be voted.
The coalition termed the last four years of BJP rule in the State as “unprecedented dark days”, when the government “looted 40%, caused price rise, and created enmity between religious groups disrupting the social fabric of the State.” Expressing confidence that the people of the State have already decided to reject the BJP, the coalition said it was not enough though. “It is our responsibility to defeat the BJP in such a way that they do not come back to the market to buy MLAs,” the coalition’s statement said.
