Mangaluru June 1, 2016: Senior Congress leader B Janardhana Poojary has batted for Karnataka Police constables who have planned to go on mass leave on June 4 in support of their several demands including salary hike.
Addressing the Press at Congress office on June1, Wednesday, Poojary lambasted CM Siddaramaiah for warning strict action against police personnel who would go on leave as a mark of protest. Police too have families and responsibilities, Kadoor Police have warned to take extreme step along with their families if government failed to fulfill the demands, Poojary recalled.
Poojary said that the Chief Minister must raise the salaries of police constables and pointed out how they were getting less salaries when compared to their counterparts in Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh.
If the CM decides to hike the salaries of police personnel and do justice to them, then he will be remembered forever in the history of the state, Poojary said.

Public knows the game of all the political parties they are silently watching and not responding to any as its the waste of time and nothing else. But most of them enjoys Poojary’s talks as he puts his own men in trouble. | |

Criticism is the birth right of politicians. Nobody is perfect Mr.Poojary , the Congress too has made so many promises to the people but never fulfilled. Even in the state if there was BJP honestly Modi’s words would be true as the people are held up in the state due to Congress government. So think twice before passing any Comment JP | |

Poojary is the one who speaks unbiased about his own party. Ofcourse the salary of the constables have to be raised as its not an easy task . |
