Home Minister Amit Shah Unveils BJP's 'Aarop Patra' Against Chhattisgarh Government, PM Narendra Modi Says it Exposes Plight of State

New Delhi, September 2: After the Union Home Minister Amit Shah unveiled the BJP's 'Aarop Patra' (list of charges) against the Chhattisgarh government in the state capital, Raipur on Saturday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that this sheet (Patra) exposes the plight of the state in every field. Taking to 'X', (formerly Twitter), Modi said, "This charge sheet of Janata-Janardan against the present government of Chhattisgarh exposes the plight of the state in every field. The BJP is determined to once again connect the Dalits, tribals and the underprivileged of this glorious state with the mainstream of development."

Earlier in the day, Amit Shah unveiled the BJP's 'Aarop Patra' (list of charges) against the Chhattisgarh government in the state capital, Raipur, and said that 'Dilli ka Darbaar' can do nothing good for the state. "The upcoming state assembly elections are not just about a change of regime but it is also about securing the future of Chhattisgarh. The people have to decide if they want to give another term to Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel's corrupt government or vote for a development-oriented government by the BJP in the state. Dilli ka Darbaar (oblique reference to the Gandhi family) can do nothing good for Chhattisgarh. It is only the BJP, which can save the state from corruption," Shah said. Chhattisgarh Assembly Elections 2023: BJP Will Save State From Corrupt Bhupesh Baghel Government, Says Amit Shah.

"If voted to power, the BJP will put the state on the path of development and progress. We have unveiled the 'Aarop Patra' today to make the people aware of the corruption and scams that happened under the Congress government. Since 2018, when they (Congress) came to power, they have done nothing other than looting the state and the people," Shah added. Praising the previous BJP government in the state, Shah said, "While Raman Singh (former Chhattisgarh Chief Minister) was at the helm of affairs, the state made noticeable progress and took forward strides on all yardsticks of development. He provided free ration to every household. People started calling him 'Chawal wale Baba' (the leader who provided rice free of cost)."

"We even reserved 50 per cent seats for women candidates during the panchayat elections. Chhattisgarh was recognised as an education hub, power hub, cement hub, and an aluminium hub," the Home minister said.

The BJP, in its 'Aarop Patra,' alleged that the Congress government encouraged Naxalism in the state and got BJP workers killed.

"The Congress party promised to construct 200 food parks in the state but could not make even a single one of them," the party alleged further in the Aarop Patra.

"The party promised to provide potable water to every household but could not provide the same to even half of them. It spent Rs 600 crores of public money for promotional activities. The Congress also threatened journalists and suppressed their rights," the BJP added. Aditya L1 Launched: Home Minister Amit Shah Extends Congratulations on ISRO's Spacecraft Launch Success (Watch Video). 

The 'Aarop Patra' also accused the ruling party of giving "leeway to criminals for its own political benefits". "The Congress party gave blatant leeway to criminals for its own political benefits and made the state a hub of drug peddlers and addicts," the BJP alleged further in its 'Aarop Patra'.

The Chhattisgarh Assembly polls are scheduled to be held later this year.
