After the Congress lost in five States, its leaders had become ‘sleepless’ and were unable to decide to what to do resulting in incoherent statements, State general secretary of BJP Mahesh Tenginakai has said.
Addressing presspersons in Hubballi recently, Mr. Tenginakai said that Leader of the Opposition Siddaramaiah was making ‘hit-and-run’ allegations. During his own rule, there were several scams in the Karnataka Public Service Commission, he alleged.
Referring to allegations on PSI recruitment scam by former Minister Priyank Kharge, Mr. Tenginakai said that he had so far not replied to the notices issued to him, seeking further details on the recruitment scam, which showed his real face.
To a query, he said that BJP had nothing to learn from the Congress which, he said, was involved in series of scams and irregularities during its reign. In the Arkavathy denotification, there was a scam of ₹5,000 crore and the complaints to ACB against Mr. Siddaramaiah were not probed into, he alleged.
On the 40% allegation and PSI recruitment scam, he said that the Government would hold an impartial inquiry to bring out the truth. This apart, the party would launch an awareness programme to sensitise the people on the reality of these allegations.
MLC Pradeep Shettar, chairman of HDUDA Nagesh Kalburgi, BJP leaders Sanjay Kapatkar, Lingaraj Patil, and others were present.

What began as a simple way to stay active soon grew into something larger. The couple converted the garden of their Ashok Nagar residence into a pickleball court, now known as Pickleball Point, envisioning it as a lively space where people from all age groups could gather, play and connect. “It started at home, as something for my husband and me to stay engaged,” she says. “As senior citizens, we wanted to enjoy the energy of people coming in and playing,” she further adds.
