CM Sharma Slams Congress on Disability Support

Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma on Wednesday took a dig at the Congress party and asked what it had done for persons with disabilities despite being in power for decades. Addressing a State-level award ceremony in Jaipur on International Day of Persons with Disabilities, he said the Congress only made hollow announcements and did no work on the ground. “Despite being in power for decades, Congress did nothing for the differently-abled. I do not wish to make this a political issue, but the kind of indifference they showed towards the disabled in this State is unacceptable. Not a single substantial initiative was taken; they only made hollow announcements,” Sharma said.
