BJP Denies All Allegations of Death Threats to Congress Chief Mallikarjun Kharge Ahead of Karnataka State Election

On 6th May 2023 (Saturday), the Congress party alleged that the BJP was plotting to kill Congress President Shri Mallikarjun Kharge along with his family before the Karnataka state elections. The party also asserted that these threats could in no condition be taken lightly and action from authorities is required to prevent the "sinister" and "ugly plot" of the BJP from succeeding.

 

Here’s what the BJP has to say about these rumors.

 

The BJP’s Stand on Alleged Death Threats to Mallikarjun Kharge

 

Manikanta Rathod, a candidate from the BJP for the Karnataka state election, has expressed, “I was very surprised and laughed a lot that Congress is so scared of losing the election. So that's why they're making such false allegations. I have registered a complaint against Congress.”

 

The BJP has also called all the audios and videos being circulated by the Congress in support of the claim of a death threat to Mallikarjun Kharge fabricated and false. The Congress has also played audio as proof of the threats during a press conference in which BJP member Manikanta Rathod can be heard using abusive language for Kharge and angrily speaking of killing him along with his family.

 

Manikanta Rathod’s criminal history has been used by Congress as a tool to reinforce the truth of the death threats. However, Rathod and other BJP officials have treated Congress as a laughing stock ever since Congress tried to stir public emotions regarding the death threats to Mallikarjun Kharge.

 

The BJP has also gone to the extent of saying that the reason for these tactics being adopted by Congress is the sheer fear of losing the Karnataka state elections.
