Tamil Nadu Congress Committee (TNCC) Assembly floor leader K. Selvaperunthagai on Saturday said the Congress’s victory in the Karnataka Assembly election is just the beginning towards change in the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha election.
Speaking to reporters here at the party’s headquarters, Sathyamurthy Bhavan, in Chennai, he credited the TNCC’s allies in Tamil Nadu – DMK, VCK and others – for extending their support. “It is a victory for India. It is not just a simple change in government. Prime Minister Narendra Modi campaigned in Karnataka as if someone was campaigning for the post of ward councillor. He campaigned in Karnataka 18 times, and Amit Shah campaigned 20 times. The BJP’s national leaders and other MPs and MLAs came to Karnataka, but the people have rejected them,” he said.
Meanwhile, Makkal Needhi Maiam founder Kamal Haasan on Saturday congratulated Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for the victory in Karnataka.
