Bengaluru: Holding Congress responsible for the divide and polarisation of opinions in Karnataka, the Muslim face of the BJP Abdul Azeem appealed to Muslims to not believe in the "stereotypical notion that has been set by the Congress" and instead work at living with the Hindus and foster communal harmony. Azeem also took a jibe at Congress leader and minister Zameer Ahmed Khan for saying that he had lost relevance after joining the BJP. He credited Zameer and HD Kumaraswamy for the growth of the BJP in Karnataka.
