Jaipur, October 11 (IANS) BJP state president Madan Rathod on Saturday launched a scathing attack on senior Congress leaders Ashok Gehlot, Govind Singh Dotasra and Tikaram Julie, saying that wherever Ashok Gehlot campaigns, Congress faces a big blow.
Addressing a press conference, Rathore said, “Gehlot went to Gujarat – Congress lost. He went to Maharashtra – Congress lost. Now he is going to Bihar, and defeat is certain there too.”
He said that Gehlot criticizes his own colleagues, which has created deep internal rifts in the Congress.
Rathore said, “After sidelining his own ally Sachin Pilot, Gehlot is now clashing with opposition leader Tika Ram Juli. This clearly shows that the Congress is stuck in internal conflict, factionalism and leadership crisis.”
Rathod said that instead of misleading people, Ashok Gehlot should introspect and understand why his presence in the campaign leads to the downfall of Congress.
He said, “While Gehlot is busy with power games and political equations, the people of Rajasthan are demanding development, law and order and transparency – which only the BJP government is giving.”
Referring to the Anta assembly by-election, Rathod said that after losing the seat, Congress is only working to gain power instead of serving the people.
He commented, “The entire Congress leadership revolves around self-interest. Public service has no place in their agenda.”
Rathod accused the Congress of lacking internal democracy, saying, “Anyone can declare himself a candidate in the Congress and the party approves it under pressure. It is a one-man show that leads to dictatorship.”
Comparing it to the BJP’s process, he said, “Candidates in the Bharatiya Janata Party are selected after surveys, data analysis and public consultation. Our core committee takes decisions based on extensive brainstorming and public expectations.”
Rathod said that the BJP government has ensured effective law and order in the state.
“Criminals are being punished swiftly, women police have been empowered with resources and police stations are equipped with modern technology,” he said.
“On the contrary, during the previous Congress regime, criminals were released from police stations and police were also attacked. The BJP government has implemented transparency, good governance and corruption-free administration,” he said.
