Raipur (Chhattisgarh) [India], November 15 (ANI): As the state gears up for the second phase of polling on November 17, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national president JP Nadda targeted the Congress party, saying that the grand old party signifies corruption, loot and cheating.
"On one side there is the Bharatiya Janata Party while on the other side is Congress. Bharatiya Janata Party means development, Congress party means destruction. Congress party means corruption and atrocity. Congress does not let you have what you deserve. Bharatiya Janata Party means development, advancement, people's government," Nadda said.
He further said that while in contrast, the Bharatiya Janata Party means "development, advancement, people's government."
He further claimed that the Congress party means loot and cheating.
"Bharatiya Janata Party means the government empowering women. Bharatiya Janata Party means the government that protects the rights of farmers. Congress means loot and cheating. Congress did not leave any place free from corruption," he added.
"On one hand is the BJP party, while on the other side is the corrupt Congress party. The BJP worries about your rights while Congress robs you of them. Congress party means corruption... BJP means development, women empowerment, giving strength to the farmers... I would like to ask you all if the 2G scam, CWG scam, coal scam, and others occurred during the time of Congress or not?" he said while addressing a public meeting at Arang in Chhattisgarh's Raipur district on Wednesday.
Listing a number of scams during the Congress rule, the BJP chief urged the public to answer the ruling party on the 17th.
"CM Bhupesh Baghel took Ganga Jal in his hands and promised to ban liquor in the state. But rather he was engaged in the liquor scam. Wasn't that cheating? And it doesn't end... Rice scam, teacher transfer scam, employment scam, and the list is never-ending for scams. They also promised to reduce the electricity bill by half. They only promised. So you make them half on the 17th," Nadda said.
The second phase of the Chhattisgarh assembly elections is scheduled on Friday. The first phase of elections in the state concluded on November 7.
In Chhattisgarh, the Congress came to power in the state winning 68 of the 90 seats. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) bagged 15. (ANI)
