Terming the recent visit of the national president of BJP JP Nadda as disappointing, the Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) president Karan Mahara has said that he didn’t utter a single word about Ankita Bhandari murder case. He said that big claims were being made about the visit of Nadda but he only patted the back of a government which is mired in corruption, pathetic law and order conditions and rampant unemployment.
The PCC president said that it is surprising that Nadda said nothing about the natural disaster in Laksar and Roorkee of Hardiwar. The BJP president could not muster courage to meet the affected families of Haridwar during his visit to the city. Taking a dig at Nadda’s claim that the BJP will win in all five Lok Sabha seats in Uttarakhand, Mahara said that he must remember that BJP was defeated in the assembly election of 2022 in Himachal Pradesh which is his home State. He said that though the BJP president talked about Vasudev Kutumbkam, the BJP believes in the policy of divide and rule.
The PCC president said that the double engine government has failed in Uttarakhand and wheels of development have come to a halt. The members of the ruling party are involved in the corruption in recruitment process and when the unemployed tried to register their protest they were beaten mercilessly by the Police.
