Firstpost  

Bengaluru: With the whispers between senior Congress leaders in Karnataka, D K Shivakumar and Siddaramaiah wondering about paying homage to Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel at an event organised to observe Indira Gandhi’s death anniversary going viral, the BJP has accused the grand old party of showing respect to the country’s first Home Minister only out of fear of the JP Nadda-led party. Following which Siddaramaiah can be heard saying, “But, what happens is, BJP will take advantage of it.” To which Shivakumar replies, “Yes…but we have never kept.” The video is then fast-forwarded to show Shivakumar asking a party worker if Patel’s portrait is there, and directs him to get it. Congress leaders Siddaramaiah and Shivakumar agree to place photo of Sardar Patel along with that of Indira Gandhi fearing BJP. BJP MLA and Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa’s political secretary MP Renukacharya in a tweet said: “The Congress showed respect to Patel, due to fear of BJP.” Read all the Latest News, Trending News, Cricket News, Bollywood News, India News and Entertainment News here.
