Says that BJP govt has proved to be a failure on all fronts
Taking a dig at the spree of announcements being made by the chief minister Pushkar Singh Dhami, the leader of opposition (LoP) in Uttarakhand assembly Pritam Singh has said that the CM should also tell about the budget of these sops.
Talking to The Pioneer, Singh said that CM has made announcements like distribution of free laptops, increase in Dearness Allowance of state government employees, increase in allowance of Asha workers and others but he has not mentioned from where he will get the budget for these sops. He added that the budget and supplementary budgets have already been passed and all these announcements are only pre election doles.
On the proposed Jan Ashirwad Yatra of BJP, the LoP said that the state government has proved to be a failure on all fronts. He said that the last four and half years 19 famers have committed suicide in the state, the union government has passed three black farm bills in parliament and the income of farmers has decreased. Singh said that unemployment is at its peak in Uttarakhand and the Modi government is handing over the government enterprises to private players one by one. The price of cooking gas is increasing every day and has become out of range of the poor.
The LoP said that the BJP in order to hide its failures is changing CM every three months and in such a condition the party is hoping to get blessings of people in its Jan Ashirwad Yatra. He said that the Congress party is starting the Parivartan Yatra from September 3 from the martyrs memorial in Khatima to launch an awareness campaign in the state against the anti people policies of the state government.
