Congress says ‘such ugly and terrifying scenes were so far seen only in Bihar and other northern States’
Taking serious exceptions to the firing of gun shots to welcome Union Minister of State for Chemicals and Fertilisers, New and Renewable Energy Bhagawanth Khuba in Yadgir on August 18, Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) Working President Eshwar Khandre said it showed BJP’s inherent goonda culture. “Earlier, they [the BJP] used to terrorise people with latis (batons), and now they have taken up firearms. We used to see such ugly and terrifying scenes in Bihar and other northern States, which the BJP is bringing to Karnataka. It shows the real face and culture of the saffron party,” Mr. Khandre said in a media conference at the Congress office in Kalaburagi on August 19.More Related News
