Ahead of the May 7 polls in 14 Karnataka constituencies, Modi held rallies in north Karnataka, criticizing Congress for appeasement politics and failing to address issues like the Neha Hiremath murder case. He also reiterated allegations of Congress planning a 55% property tax and highlighted achievements like boosting toy exports.
