Karnataka Youth Congress stages protest in Delhi
Karnataka Youth Congress workers on Friday held a protest in front of Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's residence by performing "mundan" to express their displeasure over "pro-capitalists approach of the BJP-led NDA government". Youth Congress activists said educated youth of Karnataka could have secured "significant employment opportunities" at the Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd (HAL) "if the Defence Ministry would have included a clause of manufacturing the Rafale aircraft in India" in association with the HAL.
