'BJP is trying to favour Tamilians'

 Kannada Chalavali Vatal party leader Vatal Nagaraj has criticised that the State Government decided to unveil Thiruvalluvar’s statue with political intentions.

The BJP decided to unveil the statue eyeing on votes of Tamilians in the coming BBMP elections, he alleged. In a press conference, on Sunday, Nagaraj said Kannadigas should oppose the government’s decision. Otherwise Kannadigas will lose importance in their State, he said.
