Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan embarked on Jan Ashirwad Yatra from the holy city of Ujjain on Monday after performing prayers at the famous Mahakal temple.
Chouhan while addressing the gathering on the occasion at the Samajik Nyay Parisar launched scathing attack on the opposition Congress. “Those asking me to give accounts should first bring the account of Congress president Sonia Gandhi’s son-in-law Robert Vadra’s property,” the chief minister said.
Chouhan compared the BJP rule of last ten years with the previous Congress government’s rule and claimed that his government has done enormous development of the state compared to the Congress regimes. Congress has nothing to do with the development; it has put the state into misery and now it is asking question from us. The Congress should first tell that who led the state into misfortune, he added.
He said that the Congress is upset as it used to think that only Raja and Maharaja’s could run the government and asked from the people of the state that does not a son of a farmer has the right to run a governmentIJ
That is why Congress is in trouble that is why they are conspiring to malign my image and in the process are repeating lie fro hundred times, he added.The chief minister said that those who were leveling corruption charges against me in the dumper case have got reply from the court and without naming the leader of opposition said that those who are leveling dumper charges owns eleven dumpers.
Calling upon the people, Chouhan said, “Do not see the candidate; instead look at the Kamal (lotus) and me, when you go to caste their franchise.” Earlier, Senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders including former chief minister Sundarlal Patwa, MP Sumitra Mahajan, state president and MP Narendra Singh Tomar, Makhan Singh and others blessed Chouhan for the success of the Yatra and wished him good luck for the formation of BJP government for the consecutive third time in the state. Thousands of party workers who reached Ujjain from all parts of the state for the occasion also prayed for the success of Yatra.
