Bhopal: Madhya Pradesh Congress Committee Chief Jitu Patwari accused the BJP central government of acting tyrannically after 146 opposition MPs were suspended from the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. Patwari, along with Congress workers, staged a protest at the Roshanpura square on Friday.
State Congress has taken to the streets not only in Bhopal but also at Regal Square in Indore. Also, a country-wide protest is also being planned. Patwri said, “State assembly and Lok Sabha are temples of democracy. BJP has destroyed this power. I can feel it. The way I was suspended last season is an example. This is dictatorship!”
Party leader Arun Yadav was also present in the demonstration in Bhopal. Congress’s aim is to oppose the policies of the central BJP government and the suspension of opposition MPs. Congress alleges that 146 MPs have been suspended at the behest of the central government.
Not only did Patwari accuse BJP of acting like a dictator, but he also claimed that BJP has completely sidelined Shivraj Singh Chouhan after winning the state showcasing his face only. He said, “BJP showed Shivraj’s face in the elections and changed the CM after the results. Look at the process of selection of Chief Ministers of the three states MP, Rajasthan & Chhattisgarh.”
