Uppinangady, October 13: BJP will not do any politics concerned to the Yettinahole project which is a threat to the Dakshina Kannada District. Regarding the Yettinahole project, the rage of the people has come out in the form of protest. If the Yettinahole project work is not stopped immediately, BJP is ready to hold struggle similar to that of the Ayodhya Karaseve, said MP Nalin Kumar Kateel.
Addressing a press meet in Uppinangady on Monday, October 12th, prior to the padayatra towards Nelyadi, the MP said, those who are supporting the implementation of the Yettinahole project are politicising the struggle and misguiding the people, he said.
He further said, at any cost we will not tolerate injustice to the people of the Dakshina Kannada District. We will protest until the Yettinahole project is stopped, he said.
For our protest, including the saints, all people are extending their support above expectations which reminds us of the days of freedom struggle. We are confident that we will win. As like all the rivers flow to join the sea, aim of the struggle by all is same. BJP will support any organization that protests against the Yettinahole project, said MP Nalin Kumar Kateel.
The padayatra will culminate in Gundya on October 13th. In case, night falls while reaching there, the protesters will halt at Shree Chamundeshwari temple there and start from there to Yettinahole on the next day, said MP Nalin Kumar Kateel.
In the press meet, Dakshina Kannada District BJP president K Pratap Simha Nayak, MLC Capt Ganesh Karnik, K Monappa Bhandary, Sanjeev Mattandur, Zilla Panchayat Member Puila Keshava Gowda, leaders such as Umanath Kotian, Chandrahas Ullal, Devdas Shetty and others were present.
