Karnataka Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy Thursday alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was playing with the emotions of people in the name of religion and terrorism.
During an election rally at Chikkodi, Modi ridiculed the Congress-JDS coalition government and said the Congress wanted a "helpless" government and told the voters to look at the "helpless" Kumaraswamy.
He also mocked the frequent emotional outbursts of Kumaraswamy, saying it was "natak" (drama).
Hitting out at Modi, Kumaraswamy tweeted "PM Modi alleged opposition parties use emotions 4 (sic) votes. But it is Mr.Modi himself who is playing with the emotions of people in the name of religion & terrorism.
Had he been confident of his development work to bring in votes Y (sic) would he resort to propaganda movie&TV channel in his name?"
