Will free Karnataka from clutches of ‘40% commission’ BJP govt: Rahul Gandhi

Bengaluru: Disqualified Wayanad MP and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Sunday said his party would ensure that Karnataka is freed from the clutches of the “40 per cent commission BJP government.”

“The BJP is exploiting the vast potential of the people of the state for its own gain. We will ensure Karnataka is freed from the clutches of the 40 per cent Commission BJP Sarkara. Can’t wait … to listen, learn and formulate a new vision of governance together with the people of the state. Congress Baralide, Pragati Taralide,” he said in a Facebook post.

The Gandhi scion further said four guarantees given to the people of Karnataka by the Congress party are formidable steps to undo the wrongdoings of BJP’s 40 percent commission government in the state.

“We have felt people’s pain during the Karnataka leg of the Bharat Jodo Yatra. We have come now with sure shot solutions: Gruha Lakshmi, Gruha Jyothi, Anna Bhagya, and Yuva Nidhi,” he said.

These schemes have been created to ensure that the lives of all Kannadigas get the dignity they deserve, Rahul Gandhi said. “The Congress and my commitment to Karnataka’s welfare, especially its women and unemployed youth, is unflinching,” he said.

Rahul Gandhi also said, “Basavanna-ji’s teachings of love, humility and compassion are deeply ingrained in every Kannadiga’s DNA and have left a lasting impression on all of us who walked for the better future of India during the Bharat Jodo Yatra.”
