The MLA of Mangaluru City North Y. Bharat Shetty alleged here on Friday that the Congress is more into appeasement politics and has ignored the development of the State.
Addressing presspersons at the BJP’s election office, the MLA said that the Congress was elected to power in the State by announcing guarantee schemes but has failed to implement them properly.
Dr. Shetty alleged that the Congress hesitated to take action against those who shouted pro-Pakistan slogans inside the Vidhana Soudha but is eagerly filing cases against Hindutva activists under the Goonda Act. He alleged that law and order has collapsed in the State and the Congress has emptied the treasury for implementing its guarantee schemes.
The MLA said that people are migrating in the State due to drought and, he alleged, the government has failed to tackle the drought situation.
He alleged that the government diverted ₹11,000 crores meant for the welfare of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes for implementing the guarantee schemes.
The MLA alleged that the Congress government is following an “anti-Hindu policy” to appease minorities.

In , the grape capital of India and host of the Simhastha Kumbh Mela every 12 years, environmental concerns over a plan to cut 1,800 trees for the proposed Sadhugram project in the historic Tapovan area have sharpened political fault lines ahead of local body elections. The issue has pitted both Sena factions against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), which leads the ruling Mahayuti alliance in Maharashtra. While Eknath Shinde, Deputy Chief Minister and Shiv Sena chief, and Uddhav Thackeray, chief of the Shiv Sena (UBT), remain political rivals, their parties have found rare common ground in Tapovan, where authorities propose clearing trees across 34 acres to build Sadhugram and a MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions) hub, as part of a ₹300-crore infrastructure push linked to the pilgrimage.
