Black money was not brought and deposited in our account; We have to campaign against BJP - DK
Black money was neither brought and never deposited in our account. Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar lashed out against the BJP saying that now we have to start a campaign against them.
Speaking to reporters before participating in the drive for free travel scheme 'Shakti' for women in government buses at Vidhansouda on Sunday, DCM Shivakumar said, "We are in the land of Basavanna. What we Say, is what we do, that is the strength of Congress. Criticisms die, works live on. He said that by criticizing the opposition parties, they will work.
BJP did not bring black money and put it in the account. Income did not double. Jobs were not given to the youth. He joked that we will have to start a campaign against the BJP.
Today is a holy day. True worship of God is to make people happy. I have now come to worship God. He said that he is seeing God in people.
