In the race to appease minorities in the run-up to the Lok Sabha elections next year, Karnataka Congress chief G Parameshwara has suggested it’s all right for them to cheat by not repaying loans taken from government agencies.
At a Congress workshop for minorities, Parameshwara said several people who had taken loans had cheated the government by not repaying them. “The Karnataka Minorities Development Corporation, instead of giving small loans, should sanction huge amounts like Rs 50 lakh. Never mind if the beneficiaries don’t repay the loans. Topi hakidre parvagilla (‘no issues if they cheat’). Many people and officials have duped government agencies of crores of rupees. It’s part of the development process,” he said. Also present were Union minister for minority affairs K Rahman Khan, former MP C K Jaffer Sharief, minister Qamarul Islam, R Roshan Baig and Naseer Ahmed.
