Bengaluru, June 07. The ‘Chaddi’ dispute between BJP and Congress is increasing in Karnataka. The Congress has dragged the RSS as well as the BJP into this controversy. On Tuesday, former Karnataka Chief Minister Siddaramaiah attacked the RSS over the ‘Chaddi’ controversy. He said that why did no Dalit or OBC person ever sit on the post of Sangh chief?

Why didn’t Dalit, OBC or minority become the RSS chief?

Talking to the media in Hubballi, Siddaramaiah said that the RSS is a non-secular organization, that is why till date no Dalit, OBC or minority person has ever sat on the post of Sangh chief. During this, Siddaramaiah said on the question of sending shorts by RSS workers to the Congress office and said that what can I do in this, the trunks only do the work of tights.

What is the ‘tights’ controversy?

Let us tell you that the ‘Chaddi’ dispute between BJP and Congress started when NSUI workers burnt khaki shorts outside the residence of Karnataka Education Minister BC Nagesh. His protest was because the lesson of alleged ‘saffronisation’ is being taught in the school textbooks. After this, RSS workers in Mandya district sent khaki shorts to the Congress office in protest against Siddaramaiah’s remarks against RSS khaki shorts.

On Siddaramaiah’s remarks, Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on behalf of BJP said that the Congress leader should talk about the development and future of the state. He said that Siddaramaiah has no other issue, so he is talking like this. At the same time, Union Minister Prahlad Joshi also hit back at Siddaramaiah and said that the tie between Siddaramaiah and the Congress party is already loose. His trunk is lost in UP.
