In a video gone viral of the MP addressing a function in Kumata of  Uttara Kannada district on Monday, he says, among other things, 
“No network is available in Bangalore. The entire BSNL is a stigma on the country today…It can’t be rectified or corrected now. The greasiest system is the BSNL system. If our government can’t fix it, think how stupid it is. It is a system filled with traitors…” 

He goes on to say, “The Prime Minister on one side is encouraging Digital India…We are giving them money as required and technology. But it’s not ready to work… Around 85,000 people will be sacked…They are privatizing BSNL to fix it. This is the only way, there is no other way…”
