Exhorting his party workers to prepare for next year's Assembly elections in Chhattisgarh, BJP national president J.P. Nadda on Friday said that the Bhupesh Baghel-led State government was working as the Congress party’s ATM.
Presenting a slew of statistics on what he described as development work done by the BJP at the Centre and during its three stints in power in Chhattisgarh, Mr. Nadda said that while the BJP stood for development, Mr. Baghel was merely interested in garnering money for his party’s coffers.
“They want to fill the party’s treasury by looting the common people of Chhattisgarh…. Would you let such people to continue [in power]... Do you want to become Congress’ ATM?” he asked while addressing a large number of booth-level party workers who had come for a convention from across the State at the Science College ground here.
