Jul 14, 2024
Ranchi (Jharkhand) [India], July 14 : Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan launched a scathing attack on the Congress-JMM alliance in Jharkhand on Sunday and said that both parties have become machines of lying, adding that BJP will expose the Hemant Soren government.
Notably, Jharkhand is among the states where elections will be held later this year.
Shivraj said, "Congress and JMM have become machines of lying, they lie every day that they have achieved success even with fewer seats. The same has happened in Jharkhand. If we convert the Lok Sabha results into Assembly results, we have won 52 seats out of 81."
Chouhan also questioned the achievements of the alliance during their five-year term, asking what they have accomplished. He mentioned that JMM's manifesto contains 144 promises and Congress's manifesto has 133 promises. He challenged Hemant Soren to explain how many promises have been fullfilled and accused them of deceiving various sections of society.
Chauhan said he would expose Hemant Soren government by telling the public regarding the unfulfilled promises of the JMM- Congress.
"The promises included promises for the youth, stating that within two years of forming the government, jobs would be provided to thousands of Jharkhand youths in various vacant government positions. Until jobs are provided, graduates would receive Rs 5000 and postgraduates Rs 7000 per month. Hemant Soren did not give employment to even a single youth," he said.
He also accused the government of deceiving women, adding that the women were promised that they will be given Rs 2000 per month.
"Additionally, promises were made to farmers, including the establishment of a farmers' bank. Under the previous BJP government led by Raghubar Das, Rs 5000 was given under the Mukhyemantri Krishi Samriddhi Yojana, which was discontinued by the Hemant Soren government," he added.
The Union Minister emphasized that BJP would present Hemant Soren's promises to the public and hold the government accountable for their actions.
