BJP urges Congress govt to fulfil election promises or face protests across Karnataka

On comments by some Congress leaders about banning the RSS, Kateel said even former prime ministers Jawaharlal Nehru, Indira Gandhi and Narasimha Rao who tried to ban the organisation were not successful due to intervention of courts. He also said the BJP government had appointed slain party activist Praveen Nettaru’s wife as a government employee on contract basis and on compassionate grounds. However, the new Congress government has removed her from service.
