Intolerance is in Congress, says Joshi

State BJP president Pralhad Joshi has said that ‘intolerance’ was in Congress against the good job being done by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Speaking at a party meeting here on Friday, Joshi said that the Congress was speaking about intolerance since it had no other issue. “ Out of around 1,200 people who were conferred with civilian awards, only 49 have returned awards, while others are leading their life peacefully,” he said. The Congress does not want Modi’s success at any cost and hence was raking up ‘intolerance’ blaming the prime minister for everything, Joshi added.

Karnataka has failed to utilise the funds released by the Centre. Though the Union government is ready to provide more electricity, the State is yet to secure a power corridor, he said.

Leader of the Opposition in Assembly Jagadish Shettar claimed that Siddaramaiah and Lokayukta Justice Y Bhaskar Rao have an agreement to protect each other
