Is he not culpable in virtually paralysing the state machinery, and making obnoxious statements, now recorded in public domain? A resignation drama was enacted to shamelessly dodge that bullet," he said.</p>.BJP may intensify fight against Congress in Karnataka; to discuss next phase of agitation.<p>"Modi ji, why have you been so remorseless? Why have you not bothered to set foot in the state? It is because of your ego that people of all communities are suffering. Your government's rank incompetency and shamelessness has not been able to start even a fundamental peace process!" Kharge said in his post on X.</p>.<p>He said bombing through drone attacks have just taken place in Imphal West district and Union Home Minister Amit Shah "seems to be asleep at the wheel".</p>.<p>"Even your own BJP leaders and their houses are being attacked.
