Congress Leader criticises BJP's double standards, questions push for Siddaramaiah's resignation


Media Release

Udupi, Sep 29: Udupi Block Congress president Ramesh Kanchan has launched a scathing criticism against BJP leaders for demanding chief minister Siddaramaiah’s resignation over the MUDA (Mysuru Urban Development Authority) case. In a press release, Kanchan questioned why the same urgency is not being shown towards BJP leaders and central figures involved in major controversies, including the Election Bond scandal and denotification cases.

Kanchan’s comments come after Udupi MLA Yashpal Suvarna and MP Kota Srinivas Poojary called for Siddaramaiah to step down following the filing of an FIR by the Lokayukta. In response, Kanchan asked when these BJP leaders would demand the resignation of finance minister Nirmala Sitharaman, BJP state president B Y Vijayendra, and former MP Nalin Kumar Kateel, who have been implicated in a Rs 6,000 cr election bond scandal.

He also pointed out that union minister H D Kumaraswamy faces cases related to the Gangenahalli denotification and Jantkal mining scandals, yet there has been no similar demand for accountability. "The BJP claims the law is the same for all. If that’s true, why the double standards when it comes to FIRs filed against their own leaders?" Kanchan questioned.

Kanchan accused the BJP of "selective outrage," using the MUDA case to attack Siddaramaiah while ignoring the pending cases against their own leaders. He challenged Udupi’s MLA and MP to demonstrate courage and demand resignations from BJP leaders involved in ongoing investigations.

Addressing the local concerns, Kanchan urged Suvarna and Poojary to focus on resolving urgent infrastructure issues in their constituencies. He highlighted the poor condition of roads in Santhekatte, Indrali, Malpe, and Parkala, criticizing their failure to deliver on multiple promises regarding road repairs. He further reminded them that the public is keenly observing their inaction, stating, "Instead of calling for Siddaramaiah’s resignation, prioritize the safety and well-being of the people in your own constituencies."
