Hubballi, Dec 29: BJP will conduct a pro-Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) campaign across Karnataka from January 1-15 to counter the protests against it.
The ruling party will hold mega rallies and public meetings in major cities, including Bengaluru, Mysuru, Mangaluru, Hubballi, Belagavi, Ballari and Kalaburagi to enlighten people on the law.
“A fortnight-long pro-CAA awareness campaign will be held to counter the protests launched against it by students and others at the behest of Congress and left parties,” BJP’s state unit general secretary N Ravikumar said on Saturday.
Ravikumar said the party will also hold pro-CAA rallies in all 30 district headquarters. “Our cadres and supporters will go on a door-to-door campaign. We will reach out to about 1 crore people of all ages through messages and audio/video clips in Kannada, Hindi and English through social media,” he added.
He alleged that a deliberate misinformation campaign was carried out against CAA by vested interests by misguiding students and members of minority communities.
Besides veteran Congress leaders, he said West Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee and CPM politbureau member Prakash Karat, who are opposing CAA, had voiced their support for the amendment in 2005.
