Bengaluru, Mar 12: Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president G Parameshwara has described the ‘political charge-sheet’ released by the BJP as ‘a bunch of lies.’
Parameshwara said statistics in the booklet are incorrect and misleading. “The BJP is trying to misguide people with wrong statistics and facts. They should know that the BJP-ruled states such as Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh contribute more to the crime in the entire country than Karnataka,” he told reporters.
Karnataka's contribution to overall crimes in the country is just 4.7%. Whereas it is 9.3% in Maharashtra, 9.1% in Madhya Pradesh and 6.5% in Delhi. They (BJP) should have cross checked the statistics before printing them,” he said, quoting the National Crime Records Bureau statistics.
Parameshwara also rubbished the claims of the BJP that the state has been financially indisciplined.KPCC working president Dinesh Gundu Rao said none of ministers in the party government is tainted. Unlike the BJP government in the past, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has provided a corruption-free and stable government in the past four years.
The booklet released by the BJP shows that there is a lot of confusion in the saffron party; the booklet does not have the picture of the Leader of the Opposition in the Legislative Council K S Eshwarappa, he pointed out.
