“Please give us full majority so that the BJP does not indulge in horse-trading of legislators tomorrow,” Rahul Gandhi, Congress leader said on Saturday.
“I request the voters of Karnataka to give the Congress a comfortable majority of 125 seats, as it will prevent horse trading. Because if we get any lesser number of seats, then the BJP will begin the game of buying legislators. And a government that comes to power after committing theft of MLAs, will indulge in nothing but theft,” Mr. Gandhi said at a Congress campaign rally in Bhootaramanahatti village in Yamakanamaradi constituency in Belagavi district.
“You have all seen what the BJP government do in these three and a half years. It looted the people of Karnataka for all these years. That is because a government formed by theft will remain a governments of theft. The BJP government came to power by purchasing MLAs by paying them huge amounts of money. They continued to engage in theft. I request you therefore to give our party a full majority of 125 seats. Otherwise, the BJP will resort to purchase of legislators,” he said.
