Staff Reporter

Former Chief Minister Ajit Jogi’s outfit Janta Congress Chhattisgarh (J), will lodge a complaint with Election Commission of India (ECI) over alleged attempt by rival parties to buy its candidates who are predicted to win Assembly polls for results to be declared on December 11.

In a statement JCC (J) spokesperson Nitin Bhansali said both the political parties, the ruling BJP and the Congress, are claiming to form the next government but they are falling short of simple majority mark for the 90-member state assembly and thus they are trying to allure JCC (J) candidates.

“In a bid to grab power both the political parties have planned to allure the possible MLAs of my party,’’ Bhansali alleged.
