Time to oust BJP: Deepender

Kurukshetra/Yamunanagar, August 16

Welcoming the announcement of the Assembly elections, Congress MP Deepender Hooda said the time had finally arrived to oust the BJP government, for which residents of the state were waiting eagerly.

Deepender, who was here in Pehowa as part of ‘Haryana Mange Hisaab’ campaign, said: “As farmers wait for rainfall in the fields, people of Haryana were waiting for the Election Commission’s press conference. You will see a new shine on the faces of residents. The time has come to get rid of the BJP government and I would like to congratulate the people of Haryana on this occasion.”

The Rohtak MP, said: “We have posed some questions regarding unemployment, crime, illegal immigration, inflation and drug overdose to the government, but it hasn’t been able to give the answers. The BJP must give the account of its 10-year rule in Haryana. In democracy, public and the Opposition seek account from the ruling party, but in Haryana, the BJP is seeking account from the Opposition. It seems the BJP has accepted that it is going to sit in the Opposition soon in the state.”

In Yamunanagar, he held a ‘padyatra’ in Jagadhri city of Jagadhri constituency. He said by introducing Kaushal Rozgar Nigam and Agneepath Yojana, the BJP had trapped people in the web of temporary jobs without reservation, without merit and without pension. He further said the BJP government, which was crushing the rights of SCs, OBCs, had abolished two lakh permanent jobs and converted the remaining into temporary jobs. — TNS
