Union Information and Broadcasting Minister Smriti Irani on Sunday said that law and order situation in Karnataka has eroded during the Congress rule.
"Karnataka is not safe in the hands of the Congress. In Bengaluru, a policeman's wife was attacked and her mangalasutra snatched - a tell tale comment of the state of affairs" Irani said at a Mahila Morcha event in Bommanahalli in Bengaluru on Sunday.
She said the BJP was capable of restoring law and order to normalcy in the state. "It is high time that the people of Bengaluru in particular and Karnataka in general decide to do away with Congress and bring BJP the back to power," Irani said.
Irani, who also holds the Textiles portfolio, said that the Centre has made it mandatory for all garment factory owners to constitute be internal complaints committee to look into harassment to women.
