Bengaluru, May 20 (NationPress) The Karnataka BJP criticized the Congress government on Tuesday during its 'Sadhana Samavesha' event, which marked two years in power, asserting that it has no accomplishments and is focused on excessive advertising.
State BJP President B. Y. Vijayendra remarked, "Apart from the flashy headlines and front-page promotions, the government is revealed to be plagued by widespread corruption, persistent price surges, increasing farmer suicides, troubling maternal mortality rates, rising crimes against women, threats to Hindu lives, crumbling infrastructure, a haven for anti-national activities, soaring unemployment, unfulfilled promises, halted development, and the suspension of crucial farmer welfare programs like PM-Kisan Samman Nidhi and Raitha Vidyanidhi."
He highlighted that the youth, women, and elderly are feeling utterly disenchanted, with their daily lives burdened by continuous price hikes and financial pressure on their savings.
Vijayendra emphasized that the escalating atrocities and crimes have thrust Karnataka into the spotlight for all the wrong reasons.
"Namma Bengaluru, once celebrated as the Silicon Valley of the East, now suffers from pothole-ridden roads, congested traffic, recurrent flooding, and overflowing sewage. Major tech firms are withdrawing, investors are worried, and infrastructure is collapsing—yet the government shows no concern," he criticized.
Vijayendra added, "Farmers, the backbone of our society, have been neglected in their time of need. This callous government has turned a deaf ear to their pleas."
The alarming rate of maternal deaths reflects a compromised healthcare system and a government that has failed its most vulnerable citizens, he stated.
Vijayendra asserted that when it comes to tangible results, the Congress administration has nothing to present.
The only 'Sadhana' this government excels in is extravagant spending on offices and misleading advertisements, he noted.
Notably, the BJP has launched full-page newspaper advertisements that highlight the rising costs of essential goods during the Congress-led administration in Karnataka.
The BJP has also provided a comparative analysis of essential commodity prices and the initiatives and projects introduced during the BJP’s tenure that have been halted by the Congress-led government.
