Congress will form counter-strategy to politically tackle BJP’s padayatra: Karnataka Chief Minister
The chief minister describes BJP’s padayatra as a politica. ploy to divert public attention from its own in internal differences
Bengaluru: Describing the BJP’s ‘Ballari Chalo’ padayatra as a political ploy to divert public attention from its own internal differences, Karnataka Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar has asserted that the Congress will respond to the BJP’s initiative with its own counter-strategy. The BJP’s padayatra, which commenced on Tuesday, aims to garner support for various issues, including the demand for B. Nagendra’s resignation from the ministry.
However, Shivakumar highlighted that Nagendra had already resigned, despite allegedly not engaging in any wrongdoing. The Congress party, known for its extensive experience in organizing padayatras, has pledged to counter the BJP’s efforts in the same manner. The BJP’s campaign is also viewed as an attempt to regain political influence in Ballary, Nagendra’s home district, by addressing alleged irregularities and appealing to the Valmiki community.
