A BJP convention was held at Sullia. Speaking on the occasion, Udupi-Chikkamagaluru MP Shobha Karandlaje said “Siddaramaiah-led government in Karnataka is the worst government. The people of the state are all set to pull the government down. The BJP will come to power in the state.”

“The election is being held between dharma and adharma. Several Hindu activists have lost their lives in the last five years,” she said.

BJP leader Harikrishna Bantwal said, “Both Siddaramaiah and Ramanath Rai are problematic to the country. The voters will send them home.”

On account of Vasanth Bangera filing nominations in Belthangady, a Congress workers convention was held at Ambedkar Bhavana.

Speaking on the occasion, KPCC secretary Venkappa Gowda called upon the people not to get lured by the speeches of BJP.

The Congress-led state government has waived off loans borrowed by the farmers from cooperative societies, released financial assistance for farmers when arecanut was affected with fruit rot disease. The government has stood by the farmers.

KPCC General Secretary U B Venkatesh said that, of the 165 promises, the Congress-led government has fulfilled 159 promises in the last five years.

The Congress Candidate Vasanth Bangera said, “Opposition parties have been mocking me by stating that “I break coconuts.”

The place where I broke coconuts has been developed. School, college, hospital, bridges have come up in the places where I have broken coconuts.” In the last five years, a total of 38,000 title deeds have been issued.
