Sher Singh Hedko (93), resident of village Bhainsakanhar under Bhanupratappur assembly constituency, will vote for the first time in this assembly election.

  • Is there something troubling Congress in Rajasthan, Rahul told about close fight, what did MP say on Chhattisgarh?

    Is something bothering Congress in Rajasthan? These questions have been raised often. Now Congress leader Rahul Gandhi says that a ‘very close’ contest may be seen in Rajasthan. However, Rahul expressed overall confidence of the party doing well in the upcoming assembly elections. Rahul said on Sunday that Congress is definitely winning the Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh assembly elections. Probably we will win in Telangana also but a close fight can be seen in Rajasthan.

    Let us tell you that assembly elections are proposed in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Telangana and Mizoram in a few months. When asked about the prospects of Congress, Rahul Gandhi said that there is no question of Congress not winning in any state in the upcoming assembly elections. I would say right now we are probably winning Telangana, we are definitely winning Madhya Pradesh, we are definitely winning Chhattisgarh. There is a very close contest in Rajasthan and we think we will win. By the way, BJP is also saying the same internally.

    Rahul said that Congress learned an important lesson in Karnataka that BJP wins elections by diverting attention and hence we fought the elections by keeping our point prominent. What are you seeing today, Bidhuri and then Nishikant Dubey, BJP is trying to divert attention from the issue of caste census by doing all this. They know that caste census is a basic thing which they do not want to discuss. Every time we bring up this issue they distract us but now we have learned how to deal with it.

    Rahul said- If you see Telangana elections, we are deciding the discussions while BJP is finished there. Congress is planning discussions before the elections in Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. If you talk to people in Rajasthan about what the issue is in terms of anti-incumbency, they will tell you that they like the government. We are getting into a situation where BJP controls the media. Don’t think that the opposition is not able to adapt accordingly, we are adapting, we are working together.

    Rahul claimed that BJP has captured the communication system of the 21st century to such an extent that it is practically impossible to talk to the people of India through it. The biggest learning from the Bharat Jodo Yatra was that the old way of communication and meeting people, which was started in the modern era by Mahatma Gandhi and carried forward by others in the old era, still works. No matter how much force BJP uses, its plans will not succeed because now there is direct communication with the people.

Several rounds of firing took place during the encounter. In the end, the security forces achieved great success and two women Naxalites were killed. When the investigation of the material recovered from the women Naxalites started, many types of weapons were found with them. Amidst all this, an INSAS rifle was found, the details of which were already with the security forces. When further investigation was done, the entire history could be known. Actually, the female Naxalite who died in the encounter had an INSAS rifle looted from a CRPF jawan. Not only this, the rifle was looted about 15 years ago.

    According to the information, in the year 2008, a Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) soldier was attacked by Naxalites in Katekalyan market of Dantewada district of Chhattisgarh. During that time the Naxalites had fled with the soldier’s weapons. CRPF had made an entry in its database regarding the looted weapons. After which the weapon recovered from the female Naxalite in the encounter was examined and this could be known.
