On June 4, INDIA bloc govt will be formed: Congress leader Sachin Pilot

Raipur (Chhattisgarh) [India], April 27 (ANI): Ahead of the third phase of polling, Congress leader Sachin Pilot said that the language being used by the top leadership of the BJP showed that they are rattled and it indicated that the BJP and NDA are not doing as per their expectations. He expressed confidence that on June 4 INDIA bloc government will be formed.
Congress leader Sachin Pilot said, "The language that is being used by the top leadership of the BJP shows that they are rattled and it indicates that the BJP and NDA are not doing as per their expectations and the INDIA bloc candidates are ahead with comfortable margins be it North or South. I think on June 4, the INDIA bloc govt will be formed."
He said that the Congress is focused on Chhattisgarh. "Rahul Gandhi will visit on April 29, and Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge will visit the state on April 30. Priyanka Gandhi will visit on May 2. We talk about MSP, MGNREGA, women empowerment, and the BJP talks on controversial topics."
He took a jibe at the BJP on the Agneepath scheme and said that while the BJP has given only four years to Army personnel, for themselves they are asking further 5 years.
He said, "It is strange that the BJP was in power for 10 years and it is asking further 5 years. And the youth who want to join the Army are getting just four years through the Agneepath scheme. And they are also talking about 2047. We focus on issues of the public and the farmers."
He said that the Election Commission should take cognisance of any controversial statement aimed at polarising the voters.
He further said, "All agencies should work impartially, we are all with investigations to be done on facts but it shouldn't be with an intention of revenge, officers and agencies shouldn't work under any pressure. History is evident, that all agencies be it CBI, I-T or ED, opposition leaders are being targeted, and by putting pressure on them, either they are made to surrender or be neutralised. It's not good to suppress the voice of the opposition in a democracy."
As per the Election Commission, Chhattisgarh recorded a voter turnout of 76.24 per cent in the second phase of the Lok Sabha elections.
Voting in the remaining seats of Chhattisgarh will be held on May 7 in the third phase. (ANI)
