BJP Govt has misled people by misusing public money and organizing exhibitions of Central Govt schemes on the Ridge Shimla – Devendra Bushehri
Himachal Pradesh Congress Committee General Secretary and Spokesperson Devendra Bushehri, while addressing a press conference at Congress Headquarters Rajiv Bhawan, Shimla today, said that the BJP government is trying to mislead the public by organizing an exhibition of the Central Government’s schemes on the ridge. He said that the Central Government is wasting public money in the name of the exhibition. He said that it would have been better if the Central Government had used this money to serve the people affected by the disaster in Himachal. He said that this was just an election stunt of the BJP government to confuse the public.
Devendra Bushehri said that the Modi government and BJP leaders are today propagating that the previous governments did nothing for the development of the country. Whatever development has taken place in the country has happened only after Narendra Modi became the Prime Minister in 2014. He said that the leaders of the central government party forgot the senior leaders of their own party who gave birth to the BJP and strengthened it with their hard work. Intoxicated with power, he too was humiliated on public platforms. BJP also forgot the tenure of former Prime Minister and senior BJP leader Late Atal Bihari Vajpayee. What can the public expect from such people?
Bushahri said that after independence, the Congress Party government brought far-reaching plans for development in the country, created a strong infrastructure, and made the country stronger in comparison to other countries of the world in the category of development. Due to the foresight and strong leadership of the Congress Party and public welfare programs, today India is playing a leading role in every field in the world. He expressed surprise that the present Prime Minister and the BJP want to change the Constitution and history of the country, which is a matter of concern.
Bushahri said that the Modi government gave free ration and LPG cylinders to Sri Lanka so that the people there would surround the President and the Prime Minister regarding the inflation and a similar situation might arise in India too when there would be a shortage of food grains and goods in the country. The prices of LPG are beyond the reach of common people. Even during the recent earthquake tragedy in Nepal, the Prime Minister helped the people there, but despite such a big tragedy in Himachal Pradesh, this tragedy was not declared a national disaster, whereas Himachal is also the eighteenth republic on the map of this country. Is. Even Shri Modi did not consider it appropriate to express his condolences to the family members of those who died during the disaster, whereas Modi, after coming to Himachal, calls this state his second home.
Bushehari said that the Chief Minister of the state and State Congress President and MP Pratibha Singh himself met the Prime Minister and informed him fully about the disaster in the state and the State Congress President also urged the BJP MPs from Himachal Pradesh that all the MPs Meet the Prime Minister and demand a special economic package for the state in this hour of disaster. But BJP MPs did not take this matter seriously. Accusing BJP’s central government, Devendra Bushahri said that the central government did not provide any help to deal with such a big natural disaster in Himachal Pradesh. He alleged that the Central Government was acting with a spirit of revenge.
Devendra Bushehri said that the Himachal government and Congress party went to the affected areas and helped the people, which is commendable. During the disaster, the work done by the state government to rescue the tourists trapped in the icy valleys and help them reach their homes safely is a unique example in itself. To deal with the disaster without any central help, the State Government, despite its limited resources, released an amount of Rs 4500 crore and provided immediate relief to the affected people, for which the Congress Party expresses its gratitude to the State Government. He said that the state government has taken commendable steps by increasing the relief amount to provide all possible appropriate assistance to the affected families.
The central government’s Agniveer scheme is a joke with the youth of the country
Congress General Secretary said that the Central Government’s Agniveer scheme is a joke with the youth of the country. After serving in the army for four years, he will be made unemployed. He said that recently some Agniveers were martyred while serving the country but the Central Government neither took any care of their families nor was their last rites performed with state honours. He said that the Central Government is cheating the youth in the name of employment.
Modi government at the center is not serious towards Himachal
He alleged that the Modi government at the Center is not serious towards the people of Himachal. It cannot mislead the people of Himachal by holding such exhibitions. The people of the state will hold BJP to account in the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
The state government is fulfilling all the guarantees in a phased manner
Bushahri said that the state government is starting all its guarantees in a phased manner and there is no need for BJP to worry about this. OPS has been implemented for the employees. An amount of Rs 1500 has also been started for women in the first phase, which has been started from Spit of district Lahaul Spiti. He said that the state government does not require any certificate from the BJP. The people of the state have given the mandate to the Congress party government for five years, which will not be taken care of by the BJP but by the people of the state themselves.
State Congress Committee Senior Vice President Vineet Gautam, General Secretary Yashpal Tanaik, Spokesperson SS Jogta, and Ex-Servicemen Department Convenor Captain SK Sehgal were present at this press conference.
