Abhay said that the BJP, which has the ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’ slogan, is ripping apart the pockets of the people in the name of development. The government had increased the collector rates last year. Now, it again hiked the rates from 10 to 133 per cent. He alleged that the state has come under debt of Rs 4 lakh crore in the 11 years of the BJP government and now, the government is recovering the amount from the people.

He also pulled up the government over broken roads, blocked sewerage, waterlogging on roads, the poor condition of government schools and hospitals and over government jobs.
