PTI, BENGALURU: Prime Minister Narendra Modi today accused the Congress of spreading “lies and false” propaganda, and dividing society along caste lines, as he sounded the bugle for the bitterly contested Karnataka Assembly polls. He also asserted the development of the state was his party’s only agenda. “BJP has a three-pronged agenda for Karnataka– development, fast paced development, all round development,” he told party leaders, office bearers and elected representatives through his mobile app.
“Our agenda is vikas, vikas, vikas (development, development and development),” he said. Claiming that electors have resolved to usher in a change of government in the Congress-ruled state, he said those who wished that party well had started a debate about a hung Assembly. He said such “false” propaganda was spread even before the last Lok Sabha poll which the BJP won with an absolute majority.
