Mangalore, Jan 31, 2014: MP and former BJP National President M Venkaiah Naidu said that the people of the country must give credit to Narendra Modi for the decision taken by Congress Government to increase the cylinder cap to 12.

Speaking at the press meet held at Circuit House on Jan 31, Friday, he said that the congress government is losing hope over their victory, hence to appease the voters, they are using last minute tactics. The decision of providing 12 cylinders was made with fear to to get defeated in the Lok Sabha elections, he said.

 

Naidu criticized the statement of Oil Minister M Veerappa Moily, who had said that increasing the cylinder cap was not good for the fiscal health, but when the election is nearing, all of the sudden they have decided to increase the number of cylinders. The congress government had they brought down the number of LPG to six, later increased to nine and now all of sudden raised to 12. If they had to increase the LPG cylinders, then what was the need to reduce the number, he said.

He also said that Congress Government had assured to implement women reservation bill, but even after ten years in power, but nothing has been done so far. Another promise of bringing back the black money stashed in foreign countries within one month also went in vain.

Speaking about the AAP, Naidu said that Aam Aadmi is getting exposed by its own members. Kejriwal who had promised on his children of not supporting the congress party is now backing out.

He also said that he has been in Sangh Parivar for 47 years. The Sangh Parivar may suggest or advice  the names of candidates but do not have the right to take decision and it is done only by BJP.

Naidu said that he is in charge of six programmes to be held for campaigning Narendra Modi, conducting Lok Sabha convention in 542 constituencies, meeting for BJP friends, meeting with overseas friends of BJP and media campaign which comprises campaigning through SMS, twitter and facebook. The BJP will declare the lists of candidates in the second week of February.

MP Nalin Kumar Kateel, MLC Monappa Bhandary, district president Prathap Simha Nayak and former MLA Nagraj Shetty were present.
