In a bid to election campaigning in poll –bound state Karnataka, PM Narendra Modi addressed gathering in Bellary, Karnataka and lashed out Congress-led-Govt asserting that 'Sidda-rupaiya' govt expert at graft.

PM said that Congress left no stone unturned in making this symbol of Vijaynagar Kingdom infamous for its selfish reasons.

“When we had got the opportunity to serve people of Karnataka earlier, so many development initiatives were undertaken. But sadly, Congress couldn't even ensure proper water supply despite the state being rich in water resources”, PM added

PM trained a gun at ‘Sidda’ Govt and said, “Look at the rising illegal mining in state. Congress govt here couldn't even frame a strong mining policy. Karnataka has a 'Sidda-Rupaiah Sarkar'. It has created a debt-burden for the state”.

PM Modi alleged Congress that it has ruined the rich history and legacy of Ballari.

“By defaming Ballari, they have disrespected the people of this district. Your enthusiasm & zeal shows that the Congress is going to lose Karnataka”.

PM further said that Congress indulges in vote-bank politics and they divide people on the grounds of caste.

“They are insensitive towards the tribal communities and the OBCs”, PM asserted.

PM Modi again lauded Fasal Bima Yojana and said, “Ours is a sensitive government which looks after the aspirations of people and then formulate policies. Through the Fasal Bima Yojana, we have been able to ensure the welfare of farmers”.
