Congress to focus on corruption under BJP in local polls: Bharatsinh Solanki

The “failure” of Gujarat and Central government in “reducing corruption” will be the main plank on which the opposition Congress will contest the forthcoming local bodies elections in the state, a senior party leader said here on Thursday.

“We are going to highlight the state and Central governments’ failure in reducing corruption in the local bodies elections scheduled to be held in next two months. This will be the prime issue to be raised by Congress,” the party unit president Bharatsinh Solanki said here.

Without taking the name of Chief Minister Anandiben Patel, Solanki alleged that the state government was following the “legacy” of former Chief Minister Narendra Modi “who had donated huge (tracts of) land to industrialists.”

“BJP government at Centre had made several promises, but failed to fulfill them. Congress workers will submit a memorandum to district collector and ask BJP MPs to prepare a report card of (their performance) in last one year,” he said.
