BELAGAVI: Terming as “revolutionary’’ the rail projects launched by former Union Minister of State for Railways Suresh Angadi, Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa said he had actually assumed that the Congress would not field a candidate against late Angadi’s wife Mangala, who is in the fray for Belagavi Lok Sabha bypoll.
The CM appealed to the people to vote Mangala to victory by a record number of votes. Criticising Congress rule at the Centre, Yediyurappa said the Congress had ruined the nation with its misrule. He highlighted some major policies and projects initiated by PM Narendra Modi, who had vowed to have a ‘Congress-mukt’ nation.The CM said he would personally take an initiative for the overall development of Belagavi district, if Mangala Angadi won by a huge margin.
