Karnataka Assembly Election Results 2023: karnataka assembly election After the results were declared on 13 May, some Congress leaders said that the promise to ban Bajrang Dal was deliberately included in the election manifesto. In such a situation, the question arises whether the purpose of this promise was to mobilize Muslim votes in its favor?
Leaders in the manifesto committee of the Congress have confirmed that the issue was inserted in the manifesto at the last minute, so that the BJP could make it a major election issue.
The talk about Bajrang Dal was deliberately inserted
The Congress party had said in its manifesto released on May 2, “We believe that the law and the constitution are sacred. No person or Bajrang Dal, PFI and other organizations that spread hatred and enmity, whether it is between the majority or the minority, they cannot violate the law and the constitution. We will take decisive action, including banning such organizations under the law.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi and many senior BJP leaders targeted the Congress during the election campaign regarding this issue. A leader who was a member of the manifesto committee of the Congress says that the matter of Bajrang Dal was deliberately inserted, which later got electoral benefits. Muslims constitute 13 percent of the total population in Karnataka.
Congress leader said this
