BENGALURU: Hitting out at the Congress, Shah said, "Even today, the Congress is indulging in appeasement politics. The 4% Muslim reservation that was given by the Congress has been ended by the BJP, and it has increased the reservation for Lingayats, Vokkaligas, SC/STs."
On the Congress poll campaign accusing the BJP state government of charging 40% commission, Shah said that the grand old party should go to the court, if they have evidence. "They can talk about it and should go to court if they have concrete evidence. Neither there's any probe nor there's any case. How will people believe in such baseless allegations?" he said. Amit Shah is on a three-day visit to Karnataka that started on Sunday. Earlier in the day, he offered prayers at Sri Chamundeshwari Devi Temple in Mysuru district.
Addressing a gathering after a road show in Gundlupet in Chamarajanagar district, Shah pointed out that state Congress president DK Shivakumar said that if their party came to power, they would reinstate the quota for Muslims.
"I want to ask Congress state President Shivakumar ji, you are speaking about bringing in Muslim reservation once again, but whose will you reduce? Answer the people of Karnataka. Will you reduce Vokkaligas' or Lingayats' or SC/STs'? This election is all about Modi's development politics versus Congress' appeasement politics," Shah said.
