Dear Mr. @JPNadda, who do you think you are talking to? We are Kannadigas, we never needed a Narcissist’s blessings to prosper.
Does BJP get great joy in repeatedly insulting the people Karnataka? Prime Minister & BJP think that the entire nation was built only after 2014?
1/n Do you think that Kannadigas lived in Stone Age before Modi became PM? We didn’t have a language or thriving culture, we didn’t have food, clothes, shelter or electricity?

There were no roads, drains, no schools, no universities or no dams. We were all jobless?

Yesterday Sri C.T. Ravi asked me if I had any documents to prove that RSS opposed Hindu Code Bill & the Constitution.

BJP MLAs should read RSS’s Organiser archives & also the Constituent Assembly debates to know their history.
1/n
As the Hon. Speaker had asked me to submit any information (historical) I may have that RSS had rejected the idea of Hindu Code Bill & Constitution, I have done the needful, officially.

The #AntiCowSlaughter bill was brought in with great fanfare in Karnataka. BJP MLAs wore Kesari shawls & even got Gau Mata to Vidhana Soudha & did an extensive pooja to mark the passing of this revolutionary bill. The ❤️ for Gau Mata is exposed in the following🧵

1/
Firstly, the Finance Dept did not approve of #AntiCowSlaughter because of the huge financial implications. The Dept says this is not a feasible idea as the Govt is already finding it difficult to make ends meet.
This shows the State economy is in doldrums.

Do you know the first one to suggest Partiton of the country based on religious lines? It was #VeerSavarkar
He suggested the two nation theory in while delivering the presidential address to the 19th Hindu Mahasabha session at Ahmedabad in 1937.
1/n Image The theory of two nations was first proposed in #Savarkar’s book, Essentials of Hindutva & was later passed as a resolution by the Hindu Mahasabha in 1937.
In 1940, All India Muslim League, led by Jinnah adopted this concept in its Lahore session. Why blame Pt. Nehru?

BJP is forcing #Savarkar on the people of Karnataka. They want his photo to be installed alongside Lord Ganesha in all the #GaneshUtsav pandals as the supreme freedom fighter of the nation.
But did he really contribute to the freedom struggle as claimed by BJP?

A thread 🧵 1/n Seems like #Savarkar wanted to be a revolutionary, but was unwilling to pay the price of being one. People like Bhagat Singh,Azad, Bose & thousands of others paid the price with their lives,but the intimidating sentences by British did it’s job of softening him up completely

Why would @PMOIndia inaugurate an already semi-functional campus with 3 batches of graduates having already graduated?

Anyways, a little bit of history on Bengaluru Ambedkar School of Economics (BASE) that @narendramodi ji will be inaugurating tomorrow.
1/n 2016 was 125th Birth Anniversary of Babasaheb Ambedkar & Govt of Karnataka wanted to pay a unique tribute to Babasaheb for his contributions to the country.
The then CM Sri @siddaramaiah sought suggestions from the leaders & representatives on what should be done as a tribute
