Raipur. Countering Bharatiya Janata Party’s allegation regarding housing and lease, senior spokesperson of the State Congress Committee, Surendra Verma, has said that not even 1 rupee belongs to the Central Modi government in the “Housing Justice Scheme” of the Bhupesh government, to take false credit. BJP leaders are making misrepresentations, Bharatiya Janata Party leaders are shedding crocodile tears only for electoral gains. During his 15 years in the government, the same leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party used to run bulldozers on the houses of the poor. Rajesh Munat and Brijmohan Aggarwal were ministers three times each in the Raman Singh government, who demolished shops and houses of the poor in the name of oxygen. The poor settlements within the city were brutally destroyed. Even Mauli Mata and Marhi Mata temples of historical, ancient and religious importance were not left out. Now as the elections approach, they are making slogans on the plots and houses of the poor. Congress governments have so far distributed more than one lakh residential pattas in Chhattisgarh. If you have the courage, Rajesh Munat, tell us that in the 15 years he has been a minister, how many poor people have he issued pattas to? The reality is that during the 15 years of BJP’s misrule, no poor was given a patta in Chhattisgarh. Senior spokesperson of the State Congress Committee, Surendra Verma has said that the Bhupesh government has given the right to not only rural and urban housing but also a roof over the heads of the poor under the “Mor Zameen Mor Makaan” scheme. As per his promise, more than 5 lakh 18 thousand forest land pattas have been allotted. Ownership rights have been given on Nazul land in the city. More than one lakh residential pattas were distributed by the Congress governments. The anti-poor Raman government did not give a new lease to even a single poor person. In Raipur city itself, more than 25 thousand people have got lease under Bhupesh Sarkar. In 2016-17, when there was Modi government at the Center and Raman Singh in Chhattisgarh, Nandraj Mountain of Dantewada district of Bastar was handed over to Adani, which has been canceled by the Bhupesh government. During the Raman government, more than 90 thousand acres of land was snatched from farmers and tribals and given to Modi’s capitalist friends. During Raman Raj’s rule, he showed the dream of setting up a power plant in Mungeli, BJP people distributed government land to their supporters in the name of medicinal farming and Ratanjot. In the name of setting up a plant in Lohri Gunda, 4200 acres of land was snatched from 1700 tribals and kept as a land bank, which Bhupesh Sarkar returned free of cost. It is clear that the Bharatiya Janata Party works to snatch land from the poor, from the tribals, from the farmers and to give the Congress government. Senior spokesperson of State Congress Committee, Surendra Verma has said that during the BJP’s Raman government, water, forests and land were snatched from the farmers and tribals of Chhattisgarh and given to industrialists. Now lying in the name of housing for electoral gains. Due to the ill will of Modi government towards Chhattisgarh and 9 worthless MPs of BJP, 7 lakh poor people waiting in Chhattisgarh were deprived of housing. With the aim of providing relief to the people of the state from the malicious withholding of housing by the Modi government, Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel has started the “Chhattisgarh Housing Justice Scheme” from the state’s resources, under which 7 lakh homeless people will be provided housing in the first phase. Has taken the initiative to provide its own accommodation. In the coming time, Bhupesh Baghel government will provide housing to 17 lakh people. Instead of making false statements, Bharatiya Janata Party leaders should tell the people of Chhattisgarh why the Modi government canceled the allotment of the PM’s residence? Bhupesh government’s housing scheme is from Chhattisgarh government’s own resources, not even 1 rupee belongs to the central Modi government. Bharatiya Janata Party leaders are making misrepresentations to take false credit.
