#KarnatakaAssemblyPolls2023 : Congress Makes Big Charge ; Alleges BJP Plot To Kill Congress president M Mallikarjun Kharge And Family

An assassination plot has been hatched to ‘wipe out’ Congress President M Mallikarjun Kharge, his wife and his entire family by a Bharatiya Janata Party candidate, the party general secretary and Karnataka in charge Randeep Singh Surjewala alleged on Saturday.

Surjewala also shared an alleged audio recording of the BJP candidate from Chittapur constituency in Kalaburagi district, Manikanta Rathod, in which he is heard purportedly saying in Kannada that he will wipe out ‘Kharge, his wife and children’.

Addressing a press conference in Bengaluru, Surjewala said, “I am going to play for you an audio recording of an assassination plot to wipe out none less than the All India Congress Committee president Mallikarjun Kharge, his wife, and his entire family as being hatched by the BJP leaders. There can be nothing more serious than that”.

He added that “the assassination plots have entered the electoral discourse of Karnataka and this was the lowest political discourse anyone can stoop to”.

“Intimidated by the all-round blessings of Kannadigas being showered on the Congress party and facing a complete rout in the ensuing Karnataka election, the BJP leaders are now hatching a plot to murder Sri Mallikarjun Kharge as also his family members,” Surjewala alleged.

Reacting to Congress allegation , “We will take the matter seriously. We will inquire into the whole thing and the law will take its action,” Karnataka CM Basavaraj Bommai told ANI on Congress alleging that BJP has hatched a plot to murder their party president Mallikarjun Kharge and his entire family
