Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar (Maharashtra) [India], October 13 (ANI): Launching a scathing attack against the Congress party, Union Minister Kiren Rijiju on Sunday said that they (Congress) have used Muslims as their vote bank and that BJP is trying to rectify the mistakes committed by the Congress.
“Congress has given preference to Muslims for votes. We want to correct the wrong that Congress has done. We are taking forward all those castes in Maharashtra who need to be helped the most. We will support them financially. Constitution building is going to be established in every district in Maharashtra. Some people are spreading misinformation in the country. Congress worked to abolish the Constitution. When the Emergency was imposed, the Constitution was also abolished,” he said while addressing a press conference in Maharashtra’s Chhatrapati Sambhaji Nagar.
Meanwhile, Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) on Sunday came lashing out at the Maharashtra government over the law and order situation, “corruption” and non-fulfilment of promises.
Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Uddhav Thackeray said that the MVA will announce their chief ministerial face after Mahayuti’s annoucement.
Notably, Mahayuti is the alliance of BJP, NCP and Shiv Sena (Eknath Shinde faction). MVA on the other hand, is the alliance of Congress, Shiv Sena-UBT (Uddhav Thackeray’s faction) and NCP-SP (Sharad Pawar’s faction).
Addressing a joint press conference, Uddhav Thackeray said, “BJP’s condition is so bad, that they are forced to contest under the leadership of thieves and traitors…Let Mahayuti announce their CM face first then we will let you all know who is our CM face. Being in government, Mahayuti should announce their CM face first.”
He also attacked the Maharashtra government over the killing of NCP leader Baba Siddiqui and said suspicions are raised on every action of the Shinde government.
The assembly elections in Maharashtra are expected to be held later this year. (ANI)
