Prime Minister Narendra Modi today sounded the BJP’s election bugle for the Chhattisgarh Assembly elections from Raipur after inaugurating and laying the foundation stone of eight projects worth about Rs 7,600 crore. While PM Modi enumerated the development works done in Chhattisgarh by the NDA government at the Centre, he accused the Congress government in the state of depriving the people of various benefits and stopping the wheel of development of the state. Modi also accused the Congress government led by CM Bhupesh Baghel of not fulfilling the promises made five years ago.
“Out of 36 promises that Congress made to Chhattisgarh, one of the promises was that prohibition would be implemented in the state…But now 5 years are about to pass and the truth is that Congress has actually done liquor scam. ” There are thousands of crores of rupees here,” PM Modi said. He also said that a big claw has stood like a wall in front of the development of Chhattisgarh. At the Vijay Sankalp Maharally in Raipur, PM Modi said, “It is the ‘claw’ of the Congress, which is snatching away your rights from you. This ‘claw’ has decided that it will loot and ruin Chhattisgarh.”

PM Modi also claimed that the Center buys major paddy cultivation from Chhattisgarh. Responding to PM Modi’s allegations, Chhattisgarh CM Bhupesh Baghel vowed on ‘Gangajal’ that his government fulfilled its promises in time.
“Modi ji, you came and the wind of lies started blowing. BJP leaders of the state were continuously misleading the farmers that paddy is procured from the central fund. You are the prime minister, you know the truth, but you also lied. That’s it. The biggest lie in the name of farmers is that 80 percent of the state’s paddy is taken by the Center. If your government’s role in paddy procurement for states is the same then why are farmers in your Lok Sabha constituency Varanasi forced to sell paddy? Rs 1,000-1,200 per quintal ,Modi ji? BJP leaders from Chhattisgarh gave you wrong information and you went away after reading the speech,” Baghel retorted in a tweet.
When you came, then Modi ji spoke a lie.
State BJP leaders were constantly disrespecting the farmers that paddy is procured by the doctors of the Centre. You are the Prime Minister, you know the truth, but you also lied.
This is the biggest lie in the name of the farmers that the center accounts for 80% of the state’s paddy procurement.

He further said that every child of Chhattisgarh knows that the Congress had promised to waive farm loans within ten days and it was waived off within two hours. He said, “The BJP’s needle has stuck. The BJP never fulfilled its promise of ‘Rs 2,100 per quintal’ and ‘bonus’ and this is well remembered by the farmers. They also know that the Congress government is not for them. What are you doing. Now no one can do it. Mislead the farmers of Chhattisgarh,” Baghel said.
Elections will be held in Chhattisgarh by the end of this year.
