Chronicle Reporter, Bhopal
As the assembly elections are approaching in the state, party leaders are changing sides. PCC Chief Kamal Nath himself is giving membership to the people coming from BJP.
On Wednesday, senior BJP leader from Balaghat and former MP Bodh Singh Bhagat joined Congress. In PCC, State Congress President Kamal Nath along with Bhagat, BJP leader Rajesh Patel of Budhni and State Working Committee member and BJP leader of Indore Pramod Tandon also got Congress membership. Addressing the program, former Chief Minister Kamal Nath said, Bhagat has also been with me in Parliament. I welcome him. There is a long list including Dilip Singh, Sharafatullah Khan, Sumit Chaubey, Rajesh Patel, Ashu Baghel, Bhim Singh Patel, Chandrashekhar Patel, Shahid. I apologize that my throat is sore. There is a lot of chest infection. But, today your enthusiasm has given me strength. All of you are supporting Congress by joining Congress. The picture of the state is in front of you all, corruption has no limits. The people of the Sarpanch organization told me at what level corruption is going on. Bodh Singh Bhagat said that your (Kamal Nath government) tenure of one and a quarter year was excellent. Your government was toppled through a conspiracy. A good decision was made regarding electricity. Consume 100 units and pay 100 rupees, the electricity used would be less than that. My fight with BJP was over fake fertilizers and seeds. The corrupt minister Gaurishankar Bisen, who was facing a disproportionate assets case, was made a minister again.
Kamal Nath cornered CM regarding employment
Kamal Nath said that why are the youth wandering today because no investment comes. Investment comes when people trust the state. But no one has faith in our state. Shivraj Singh says I submit the investor. Today we can see that all these things are useless. Our tenure was 15 months. In that we presented our policy and intentions. What we started with was a sample. We wanted to bring the state on the right track. Shivraj Singh says that one lakh people will get employment every month. I say that you fill only those vacant posts.
