Modi attacks JDS-Cong coalition, dubs it 20 pc commission govt

KARNATAKA: Tearing into the Congress-JDS coalition in Karnataka over its alleged corruption and dynasty politics, Prime Minister Narendra Modi Friday dubbed it a “20 per cent Government”, saying their only mission was “commission.”

Intensifying his campaign blitz in Karnataka, Modi also asserted there was a wave across the country for the return of

the BJP-led NDA Government in the Lok Sabha polls, which was between “Rashtravad (nationalism) and Pariwarvad (dynasty).”

He lashed out at the Deve Gowda family, targeting the JDS supremo’s son Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy over his reported remark that only those who cannot get two square meals a day seek jobs in the services, terming it an ‘insult’ to the armed forces.

He also hit out at Gowda’s other son and minister H D Revanna, without naming him, for his remark that he would retire from politics if Modi was voted back to power. (AGENCIES)
