CMs of Congress-ruled states counter BJP's charge of non-fulfilment of poll promises
New Indian ExpressMUMBAI: The chief ministers of Congress-ruled Telangana and Himachal Pradesh and the deputy CM of Karnataka on Saturday vehemently countered the BJP's allegation that the grand old party was not fulfilling the promises it made before the polls in these states. Incidentally, speaking at Akola in Maharashtra soon later, Prime Minister Narendra Modi targeted the Congress, saying wherever the party forms a government, that state becomes an ATM of the party's 'shahi parivar' and named Telangana, Himachal Pradesh and Karnataka as examples of this. When asked about Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'Ek hain to safe hain' message, Sukhu said the country's culture binds it together. Sukhu said his government's decision to implement the old pension scheme has benefitted people immensely. "People of Maharashtra have to decide whether toppling the government with the use of money is democracy," he said, apparently referring to the collapse of the Uddhav Thackeray-led dispensation in June 2022.
