Accusing Congress of seeking to convert the lands of farmers and temples into Waqf properties due to its vote-bank politics , BJP on Friday asserted that it would oppose such attempts "tooth and nail." Senior BJP leader and former law minister Ravi Shankar Prasad cited notices served on farmers in Karnataka's Vijayapura district for allegedly encroaching on Waqf properties and alleged that a temple is also facing similar claims. Forty-four properties of farmers have received such notices in three weeks, he told reporters. The Congress has been doing it due to its vote bank politics, Prasad added while asserting that the BJP would "protest any such attempt tooth and nail."
