Defense Minister Rajnath Singh on Wednesday launched a scathing attack on the Congress, alleging that it used ‘religion’ to come to power.
Singh also slammed the opposition party for arranging four per cent reservation on religious grounds when it was in power in Karnataka. He said that this was done only for the appeasement of the Muslims.
Addressing an election rally at Kagwad in Belagavi district, Singh said, “If there is any party in the history of India which has resorted to ‘Dharma’ or say ‘Religion’ to come to power, it is the Congress.”
Polling for the Karnataka Assembly will be held on May 10, while the counting of votes will be done on May 13. The Defense Minister alleged that the Congress does politics of “Hindu, Muslim and Christian”. This kind of politics should never be done.
