On Saturday, Kunal Choudhary, a former Congress MLA, harshly criticized the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and referred to it as a Farzi (fake) party.
Choudhary Addressed the Media at the Congress Office in Bhopal, “I would say that the Bharatiya Janata Party is a fake party. In 2014, they (BJP) made fake promises like two crore jobs, bringing black money, depositing Rs 15 lakh in people’s bank accounts, reducing LPG cylinders to Rs 200, reducing petrol and diesel prices at Rs a liter, and doubling the income of farmers. These were the fake promises of the Bharatiya Janata Party. Fake promises of a fake party” he stated.
In the 2023 assembly elections, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) allegedly made misleading promises, including increasing the MSP of wheat to Rs 2700 per quintal, raising the monthly payment of the Ladli Bahan Yojana to Rs 3000, selling LPG cylinders at Rs 450, creating job opportunities for youth, and constructing houses under the Awas Yojana. The Congress leader asserted that various sectors were deceived by these false assurances.
Furthermore, he criticized the Saffron Party’s newly formed joining committee as fraudulent and launched further criticism against the party.
“They (BJP) have also formed a fake joining team. If 200 people join the saffron party, then it will announce that 5000 people have taken the membership,” Choudhary stated.
Regarding Union Minister Amit Shah’s assertion about replacing a minister from a region with low voter turnout, Choudhary humorously suggested that the home minister might consider replacing State Health Minister Rajendra Shukla and Deputy Chief Minister Rewa. This region experienced an 11% decline in voter turnout compared to the previous 2019 local elections.
“Yesterday I was watching Amit Shah’s statement, he said that where the voting percentage is less, the minister of that area will be changed. So then I calculated, first Rajendra Shukla will be removed. Yesterday, voting took place in Rewa, and about 49 percent was recorded which was 60 percent during the previous poll. I challenge Amit Shah if you have made this promise, then remove ministers Rajendra Shukla, Prahlad Patel, Rakesh Singh, Uday Pratap Singh, Sampatiya Uikey, Dharmendra Singh Lodhi, Dilip Jaiswal, Lakhan Patel, Narendra Shivaji Patel, Pratima Bagri, Dilip Ahirwar, and Radha Singh. The list of these ministers has revealed that there is a downfall in voter turnout reported in their areas. What I said is that it is a fake party, fake members, fake joining committee, and fake promises.”
