He said that the concluding ceremony will take place on August 10 and the leaders from the Union government will also be present on that day.

Earlier, a meeting headed by Union Minister Pralhad Joshi and Union Minister Kumaraswamy was held regarding the padayatra.

Former Chief Minister B.S. Yediyurappa, who was also part of the meeting, urged people to join the fight to oust the “corrupt” state government.

“Both parties (BJP and JD-S) would unite and conduct the protest in which thousands of people would participate. The protest would not stop until the Chief Minister resigns. If the Chief Minister has any sense of honour, he should admit to the crimes committed and resign,” Yediyurappa said.

Pralhad Joshi said that the state is being governed by a corrupt government. “Siddaramaiah has earned the title of being 100 per cent corrupt. We will continue to strongly pursue both public awareness campaigns and legal battles,” he said.

Minister for Education B.C. Nagesh said on Friday that there was no difference between the ideologies of the Congress party and the PFI. “I don’t know what Congress leaders know about the RSS. A few of them want votes of Muslims and that is why they are demanding a ban on the RSS,” he said. “RSS is a patriotic organisation. It is not getting any funds from the government. It is not important whether it is registered or not. RSS is working for the welfare of the country. But, PFI is indulging in anti-national activities,” he stated.
