The Bharatiya Janata Party in Karnataka held a day-long protest at Freedom Park against the rise in prices of milk products, essential goods, and bus fares. Led by BJP State President B.Y. Vijayendra, former Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa, and opposition leaders, the party accused the Congress government of failing to keep pre-poll promises and burdening citizens. Congress responded by alleging the protest was for publicity and urged BJP to focus on the central government's nationwide price rise while assuring state welfare support.
