Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee president D.K. Shivakumar and other leaders held a roadshow in Sindgi on Sunday.

Mr. Shivakumar, who rode atop a vehicle through the town, stopped in the middle and addressed the crowd. He asked the people to send a message to the anti-people policies of the Union and State Governments by defeating the BJP in the bypolls. “The people have suffered greatly due to the policies of these governments. They will send a message through the bypolls in Sindgi and Hangal,” he said.

“The BJP governments have failed on all fronts. They have neither prepared schemes and programmes for the welfare and development of the common people nor have they implemented any such scheme. All their programmes are aimed at helping their friends in big business,’’ he said.
