Karnataka CM Shivakumar takes dig at BJP's padayatra, says Congress will plan counter strategy 01.09.2026

Karnataka Chief Minister D K Shivakumar on Tuesday took a dig at the BJP's 10-day 'Ballari Chalo' padayatra, stating that the opposition's protest provides an opportunity for the Congress to plan a counter strategy. The march, launched from Lingasugur in Raichur district to Ballari, aims to highlight alleged failures, anti-people policies, and corruption of the Congress government, focusing on issues concerning women, youth, farmers, and the Valmiki community. Shivakumar remarked, "They are doing padayatra, good, it is good. They are giving opportunities to us. Our party will plan a counter strategy. Our party is no less."
