Karnataka Congress Chief BK Hariprasad urges Dalits, minorities not to join BJP
BENGALURU: KPCC president BK Hariprasad on Sunday urged members of backward communities, Dalits and minorities not to join the BJP for immediate political gains, asserting that the Congress would provide them opportunities and social justice.
Speaking at a programme held at Bharat Jodo Auditorium to mark former MLA NL Narendra Babu’s return to the Congress, Hariprasad said those joining the BJP out of the desire for quick political advancement would eventually be “used” by the party.
Hariprasad appealed to those who had left the Congress for political gains to return to the party.
