The Bharatiya Janata Party has stated that the Congress is without issues and is hence raising inconsequential matters to divert the focus of the public. The BJP State spokesman Suresh Joshi said this in response to allegations levelled by the Congress about the BJP’s Garhwal candidate Anil Baluni remaining more interested in Delhi and staying away from Uttarakhand. Joshi said that the Congress lacks issues to raise.
“The issues which the people are considering are the improvement in connectivity by road and rail in the region. They are thinking about improved facilities and development in the region. The Rishikesh-Karnprayag rail project will be completed within the next five years and other major developments are expected within this period, in addition to the development already facilitated. However, the Congress is raising inconsequential matters,” he said.
The BJP State media in-charge Manveer Singh Chauhan added that the Congress candidate from Garhwal, Ganesh Godiyal had received Income Tax notices from Maharashtra which shows that he is from that State.
