Recalling how Janata Dal (Secular) had brought down the Congress-JD(S) coalition government headed by late N. Dharam Singh by withdrawing its support, Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee spokesperson and former Minister Priyank Kharge said that JD(S) facilitated the growth of communal forces in the State.
“We should not forget how JD(S) brought down the Dharam Singh government and paved the way for the growth of communal forces in the State. BJP doesn’t believe in equality. It doesn’t accept the ideas of Basavanna. It was against the very concept of social justice and reservations to weaker sections. You must remember that BJP supporter Rama Jois moved Supreme Court opposing the reservations,” Mr. Priyank said.
He was addressing a public meeting at Jewargi on Monday seeking people’s votes for Congress candidate Ajay Singh.
