    New Delhi: A day before Karnataka goes to the polls, all Congress candidates signed a “solemn pledge” on Tuesday to deliver on the “five guarantees” promised by the party to the people of the state if voted to power.

    The Congress party, its president Mallikarjun Kharge and former president Rahul Gandhi on their Twitter accounts shared the pledge signed by all the 223 candidates that the five guarantees — Yuva Nidhi, Anna Bhagya, Gruha Jyothi, Uchita Prayana and Gruha Lakshmi — will be implemented once the party comes to power.

    “Once elected as your MLA, I will deliver on the 5 Congress guarantees for the people of Karnataka. I will dedicate myself to developing our constituency. Karnataka’s interests will be my first priority. I will defend Kannada pride and culture with all my might. I pledge to fight corruption, maintain transparency and work towards a progressive Karnataka,” the pledge signed by the Congress candidates read.

    Sharing the pledge on Twitter, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge said, “All our Karnataka Congress candidates have made a solemn promise to deliver on the 5 guarantees for the people of Karnataka.”

    “They have pledged to fight corruption and work towards a progressive Karnataka,” Kharge said.

    Gandhi also shared the pledge signed by all the candidates, saying, “Congress’ 5 Guarantees ‘Pratigne’ will relieve people of Karnataka from the pain BJP’s 40 per cent Commission Sarkara has inflicted on them.”

    While the ‘Uchita Prayana’ scheme proposes free travel for women throughout the state in regular government-run KSRTC/ BMTC buses, under the ‘Gruha Lakshmi’ scheme, each woman head of the family will receive Rs 2,000 monthly assistance.

    Gruha Jyothi promises 200 unit free electricity a month to all households. Under ‘Anna Bhagya’, every person in a BPL (below poverty line) family will receive 10 kg food grains, which can be rice or millets including Ragi and Jowar every month.

    Under the “Yuva Nidhi”, Rs 3,000/month will be provided to all unemployed graduates and Rs 1,500 a month for all unemployed diploma graduates (both in the age group of 18 to 25) for two years.

    The Congress has 223 candidates in the electoral fray, and on one seat it has extended support to Sarvodaya Karnataka Party.

    The elections for the 224-member Karnataka assembly will be held on May 10 and the counting of votes will take place on May 13.

  • PM raising ‘tired themes’ in Karnataka, people will vote for Cong’s guarantees: Ramesh

    PM raising ‘tired themes’ in Karnataka, people will vote for Cong’s guarantees: Ramesh

    [ad_1]

    New Delhi: The Congress on Saturday said Prime Minister Narendra Modi was playing the “victim card” and pleading for a “discredited” double-engine government in Karnataka but the people of the state have made their mind up to oust the BJP.

    The opposition party also alleged that the first day of his campaign was about “despair and desperation” and he raised “tired themes”.

    Launching his poll campaign from Humnabad in Bidar district, Modi trained his guns on the Congress over its president Mallikarjun Kharge’s ‘venomous snake’ barb at him, saying till now the opposition party and its leaders have hurled at him different abuses 91 times.

    Reacting to it, AICC general secretary Communications Jairam Ramesh said on Twitter, “Predictably PM Modi has begun his much-delayed Karnataka campaign by playing the victim card, pleading for a completely discredited so-called ‘double engine’ sarkar and abusing Congress.”

    “These will be his tired themes no doubt as he leaves the dirty tricks to Shah and Yogi to polarise,” the Congress leader alleged, targeting Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.

    “The PM’s first day of campaigning in Karnataka is a story of 3 DEs. 1. Double Engine. 2. DEspair. 3. DEsperation.

    “His speeches were full of Only Nataka, nothing concrete for people of Karnataka (sic),” Ramesh alleged.

    Hitting out at the Congress, Modi, who was on his first visit to the state for campaigning after elections were declared on March 29, accused the party of abusing the dominant Lingayat community, Babasaheb Ambedkar and freedom fighter V D Savarkar.

    The people will respond to its abuses with votes, and as much mud they sling at BJP, the lotus will bloom, he said.

    “The Congress hates everyone who speaks about the common man, who brings out their corruption, who attacks their politics of selfishness. The Congress’ hate against such people will become permanent. In this election too, the Congress once again has started abusing me,” Modi said.

    Earlier, Ramesh put out a tweet saying, “5 years ago in his Karnataka election campaign PM Modi did what comes naturally to him – lie”.

    “Today he will do so again. But the people of Karnataka know better. They will vote for Congress guarantees, not for BJP threats,” he said.
