Karnataka BJP President B Y Vijayendra has announced a protest against the Congress party's alleged 'anti-constitutional attitude', set to take place in Bengaluru on August 5. This coincides with a protest led by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi against what he claims are incidents of 'votes theft'.
Despite being denied permission to protest at the Freedom Park alongside Congress, the BJP plans to convene near the Gandhi Statue in Vidhana Soudha. Vijayendra criticized Gandhi, stating that Congress's allegations undermine electoral integrity and urged them to submit evidence to the Election Commission or challenge the issue in the Supreme Court.
Vijayendra called for accountability, urging Gandhi to apologize for the Chinnaswamy Stadium stampede. The BJP remains firm in contesting the Congress's narrative, emphasizing the need to address accusations through judicial channels.
