BJP Candidate Lata Usendi, a former minister of women and child development in Chhattisgarh, cast her vote today in Kondagoan. Following her right to vote, the former minister criticized the state’s Congress administration, which is led by Bhupesh Baghel. Criticizing the grand old party for its role in corruption, Usendi asserted that the BJP is the only party capable of advancing the state.
Coming down heavily on Congress, Usendi said that “be it coal, liquor or the Mahadev app, the way Congress indulged in corruption is very disappointing”. She further claimed that “it is just the BJP that can take forward the development of the state”.
On the recent Mahadev app controversy, the BJP leader said that “Lakhs and crores of money is being looted by the Congress. Every section of the society is disappointed with the party”. Usendi accused the Baghel-led government of being involved in the corruption every now and then.”
Additionally, she asserted that Kondagaon, her constituency, has not seen any advancements. In this constituency, Lata Usendi is running against Congressman Mohan Markam, the current MLA. Tuesday marked the start of voting for the first round of the Chattisgarh Assembly Elections, which will determine 20 seats in the southern part of the state.
