India's ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) fired back at former Karnataka state chief H.D. Kumaraswamy on Monday over his comments about Home Minister Amit Shah.Kumaraswamy linked Shah to Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels over the weekend when the minister visited the state."The fact that BJP-Bari Bootatike Party (A party full of hypocrisies) is a party of liars was made evident by your yapping lies. Amit Shah, you are a political chameleon! This is the true face of your party. You're a reincarnation of Joseph Goebbels. You're disgraceful," Kumaraswamy tweeted.In response, BJP's Tejasvi Surya, a parliamentarian from Karnataka's capital city Bengaluru, termed Kumaraswamy's statement as "political frustration" over what he claimed would be the Janata Dal (Secular) Party's impending loss in the upcoming state polls."The unparliamentary word used by HD Kumaraswamy for Union Home Minister Amit Shah reflects his political frustration. JDS has already become an endangered party. After polls, JDS will (become) extinct from Karnataka," Surya told reporters in Gujarat, Shah's home state.Alongside the Indian National Congress Party, Kumarawamy's JDS is one of two main opposition parties in Karnataka: in the 224-member state assembly, the BJP has 120 lawmakers while Congress and the JDS have 72 and 30 legislators, respectively.They are hoping to wrest control of the state legislature from the BJP in assembly elections that will be held in the coming months.Shah's recent visit to the state was reportedly to review his party's preparations for the crucial vote. The minister has often dubbed Karnataka as BJP's gateway to southern India.

BJP Slams Ex-Karnataka State Chief Over Home Minister's 'Goebbels' Comparison
18:24 02.01.2023 (Updated: 18:45 02.01.2023) Assembly polls in Karnataka state are due in April-May this year. It's the only state in southern India under BJP rule where the party secured a majority in 2019.
India's ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) fired back at former Karnataka state chief H.D. Kumaraswamy on Monday over his comments about Home Minister Amit Shah.
Kumaraswamy linked Shah to Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels over the weekend when the minister visited the state.

In response, BJP's Tejasvi Surya, a parliamentarian from Karnataka's capital city Bengaluru, termed Kumaraswamy's statement as "political frustration" over what he claimed would be the Janata Dal (Secular) Party's impending loss in the upcoming state polls.
"The unparliamentary word used by HD Kumaraswamy for Union Home Minister Amit Shah reflects his political frustration. JDS has already become an endangered party. After polls, JDS will (become) extinct from Karnataka," Surya told reporters in Gujarat, Shah's home state.
Alongside the Indian National Congress Party, Kumarawamy's JDS is one of two main opposition parties in Karnataka: in the 224-member state assembly, the BJP has 120 lawmakers while Congress and the JDS have 72 and 30 legislators, respectively.
