Chief Minister Siddaramaiah urged the Congress party workers to highlight the five guarantee schemes implemented by the government during the campaign for the Lok Sabha elections.
He was addressing the party workers at a programme where former Minister M. Shivanna, who was with the BJP, returned to the Congress fold along with a few of his followers.
Mr. Siddaramaiah said within months of coming to power the Congress had implemented the guarantee schemes and was benefitting millions of people and the party workers should highlight this. “Between 2013 and 2018 we had made 165 promises of which 158 were fulfilled and this was in contrast to nearly 600 promises in the BJP manifesto of which hardly 10 per cent was fulfilled,” he added urging the party workers to highlight this aspect during the campaign.
