Chief Minister Raghubar Das today said that the ‘Mahagathbandhan’ (Grand Alliance) of Opposition parties led by Congress is an alliance of fear as Mahagathbandhan partners are afraid that an honest BJP Government at the Centre would bring them to book for their misdeeds in the past.
Talking to media persons at party headquarters here on Friday the CM said, “The Grand Alliance has dumped major issues in this election. No opposition party is talking about development, national security and other contemporary issues. Their one point agenda in ‘Modi Hatao’ (remove Modi). They are so afraid of the PM that they fear to land in jail if the PM comes back to rule the country. The ‘Mahagathnadhan’ is an alliance of fear,” he said.
The CM said that the people have understood that ‘Mahagathbandhan’ is led by Congress party that is neck deep in corruption and helped by selfish parties. “There is no leader of the grand alliance, there is no unity, there is no clarity, and there is no policy. Given the facts the people of the State have much faith in Modi ji,” he said.
Talking about NDA’s performance in the State the CM said, “Our win is certain in all the seats of the State. According to the people and party worker’s inputs in last two phases and the upcoming two phases it is clear that the people will give all 14 seats to the NDA in Jharkhand. People of the country are now hungry for development. Development and good governance have become centre of politics in the country,” he said.
“For 67 years the plans were not executed properly by the government, but in last 4 and half years of good governance and transparency fruits of government schemes are reaching people. There are many welfare schemes including Ujwala Yojna, PMAY, Ayushman Bharat, SBM, scholarship and pensions through DBT, which have made the people of the State happy and content with the NDA government,” said the CM.
“The people of the State are very intelligence. In 2014 people rose above caste, community and gave a clear mandate to Modi Ji, negating the coalition politics of over 30 years. There is a lot of positivity among the people now. The Country and the State are treading the path of development,” added Das.
The CM said that the Congress could not convince international community to declare Masood Azhar as an international terrorist, but under the leadership of Modi this also became possible as China withdrew its veto and the UNSC declared him an international terrorist.
“Due to poor governance of Congress in last 55-60 years poverty remained rampant in the country. Congress came to power in 1971 with the slogan ‘Garibi Hatao’ (Remove Poverty), but if we look at Congress’ 55-60 year regime poverty increase manifolds. Still, Congress’ slogan is ‘Garib ke saath Nyay’. Now, people of the country want to know, which capitalists did they nurture in last 60 years? People also want to know why they did not do justice with the poor people of the country,” he said.
Attacking JMM executive president Hemant Soren and his family Das said that the biggest exploiters of Jharkhand are Congress and JMM. “It’s an alliance of selfishness to loot the State and country. History has witnessed how the two parties have looted Rs 4,000 crore of public money,” he said.
On being asked on Debashis Gupta committee report on violation of CNT/SPT Act, the CM said that the panel was not formed for any individual, but all the cases of the Act violations.
“The JMM family has grossly violated the land laws. They have made a world record by doing several land registries on the same day. Ask them whether they have violated the Act or not,” said the CM adding that the law will take its own course to punish the guilty.
