"BJP workers, our candidates, in charge of the legislative assembly, and district president, all have got to work for the elections. This is an election to save Jharkhand. We have to protect 'roti, beti, maati', take Jharkhand on the path of development, and also fulfil all the promises we have made in our election manifesto..." Chouhan told reporters.
Earlier, Chouhan said that the BJP government would deposit Rs 2,100 monthly into the bank accounts of women on the 11th of each month if voted to power.
"The people's support is with the BJP. A wave of change is sweeping the state, and the JMM-Congress alliance will be blown away like a dry leaf. Under the BJP government, Rs 2,100 will be deposited monthly in women's bank accounts on the 11th of each month," Chouhan said.
Campaigning for BJP candidate Koche Munda in the Torpa constituency of Khunti district, Chouhan described service to the people as a form of worship for the BJP.
He continued, "People cannot be happy under the rule of JMM, Congress and Rashtriya Janata Dal." "In 5 years, they have ruined and destroyed the state. No work is done in government offices without giving and taking money. Hemant Soren is a magician. In 5 years his age has increased by 7 years and his property has also increased a thousand times," Chouhan said.
