Poster war widens as Congress, BJP trade barbs in Bengaluru

Political confrontation between the ruling Congress and the Opposition BJP in Karnataka escalated on Sunday. Youth Congress workers put up posters and banners at JDS and BJP offices and prominent junctions across Bengaluru overnight on Saturday. The campaign was intended to protest alleged anti-Dalit remarks and provocative statements. Meanwhile, state BJP president BY Vijayendra challenged ministers to explain their achievements instead of engaging in poster politics.
