Chhattisgarh Election 2023: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi reached Chhattisgarh on Saturday as part of a two-day visit. While addressing Kanker Sabha, Rahul Gandhi announced 2 big guarantees for Chhattisgarh. In this, additional Rs 10 will be given on the MSP of minor forest produce. Also, free education will be provided from KG to PG in all government schools and colleges of Chhattisgarh. Tendupatta will get incentive amount of Rs 4000 per standard bag per year.
Rahul Gandhi further said that the Congress government has fulfilled all the promises. We are poor and BJP helps Adani. The central government is giving everything to Adani. Why is PM Modi afraid of caste census? Modi should release the figures of UPA government.
In the general meeting, CM Baghel said that the BJP government is continuously working against the farmers. When Congress announced loan waiver, BJP people were feeling stomach ache. Raman government made a lot of ration cards before the elections but after the elections thousands of ration cards were cancelled. Raman government did the work of snatching one lakh acres of land from the tribals. Raman government could not even enact PESA law in 15 years.
CM Bhupesh Baghel said that the Modi government had promised to give Rs 15 lakh each in everyone’s account, had talked about providing employment, had promised to double the income of farmers but could not fulfill even a single promise. There is no such relative who was not cheated by Raman Singh and the people of Delhi. As soon as the Congress government was formed, we waived the loans of 19 lakh farmers within two hours of taking oath. 1700 tribal farmers were given land lease. Tendu leaves are being purchased at Rs 4000 per standard bag. The highest price of sugarcane and millets is in Chhattisgarh. After the elections, maize processing unit will be started in Bastar.
