As Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) announced to implement the Uniform Civil Code among its top promises made in the manifesto for the May 10 Karnataka Assembly elections, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday promised that his party would prioritize the promotion and conservation of places blessed by nature in the state. Soon after the BJP’s vision document was unveiled by the party’s national president JP Nadda, in the presence of Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai and his predecessor and Lingayat stalwart BS Yediyurappa, Shah made the promise through his Twitter account on which he also shared a video showing the natural beauty of a place in Karnataka’s Coorg. “The natural beauty of Coorg is truly stunning. Its emerald-green forests and stunning landscapes are sights to behold. The BJP government in Karnataka will prioritize promoting and conserving such places blessed by nature,” Shah tweeted. Shah made the statement on the day when he held a roadshow at Tiptur Assembly in poll-bound Karnataka’s Tumkuru on Monday in which BJP’s manifesto will play a major role.
