Bengaluru:
महावीर कुल्फी सेन्टर की और से बूंदी वासियों को दीपावली की हार्दिक बधाई व शुभकामनाएं
Implementation of the Uniform Civil Code, 10 lakh jobs in the manufacturing sector and a State Capital Region tag for Bengaluru are among the top promises made by the BJP in its manifesto for the May 10 Karnataka Assembly election.
The document, named BJP Praja Pranalike, was released in Bengaluru today by the party's national president JP Nadda. Chief Minister Basavaraj S Bommai and veteran party leader BS Yediyurappa were also present on the occasion, among others.
Addressing the media, Mr Nadda said the manifesto was not prepared after discussions in an air-conditioned room and that party workers had visited every corner of the state and gathered inputs for preparing this document.
Mr Nadda said the BJP's vision for the state is "justice to all, appeasement to none". He also said that the party's government in the state has abolished the "unconstitutional" reservation for Muslims. Just before the polls were announced, the Basavaraj Bommai-led cabinet decided to do away with the 4 per cent reservation for Muslims and divide it equally between Lingayats and Vokkaligas -- two politically influential caste groups in Karnataka.
