Alleging that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is going before the people seeking votes banking on the emotional issues, former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah predicted that the united Opposition front will come to power after the General Elections.
Speaking at Meet-the-Press organised by the Press Club Bengaluru here on Monday, the Congress leader charged that “in the last five years the NDA government at the Center has failed to deliver and keep up promises made before coming to power in 2014.”
Charging that Modi government failed to generate job opportunities, Small and Medium Industries facing threat of extinction, he said that “A serious attempts were made to derail several constitutional institutions, including that of Election Commission of India, RBI and CBI”.
While the RSS and BJP leaders are talking about changing the Indian Constitution, the Prime Minister was doing his best to implement their hidden agenda, the Congress leader said.
Maintaining that people of the country will reject the divisive forces and the agenda of the NDA government and that of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he said that “there is no Modi wave in any part of the country and non-BJP parties will assume power at the Center after the elections. Narendra Modil will not become Prime Minister again,” he added.
Pooh Poohing the Prime Minister’s assertion that he is the Chowkidar of the Country, he said that “Modi, had not made anything which had brighten the future of the poor, downtrodden and vulnerable sections in the society. Rather than Chowkidar of the nation, Prime minister is working as servant of Adani and Ambanis,” he added.

While accepting that the kind of synergy which is being witnessed at the top level leaders of the Congress and the JD(S) is not seen at the grassroot level, he said that “It will take some time and gradually all the misconception and hesitation among the rank and file of the both the parties will disappear.”
