BJP Govt neglected Jind district: Selja

Jind/Chandigarh: Congress general secretary and Sirsa MP Kumari Selja on Sunday alleged that in the last 10 years under the BJP Government, Jind has seen more neglect than ever before. “Wherever we go every day, we are met with love and crowds. Jind district is a revolutionary district, but it has not received what it deserved. Jind district has been subjected to discrimination,” she said, addressing a rally in Jind. Selja said that the BJP will have to account for its 10 years in power. “BJP is making promises about MSP, but they should clarify what law they have made for MSP. BJP government has mistreated various sections of society, including Dalits, employees, backward classes, farmers, women, and traders. This is why all sections are angry with the BJP, and the public will take revenge on October 1 with the power of their votes,” she added.
