Q/ What makes you confident of a BJP win?
A/ In 2003, when the Congress was in power here, Madhya Pradesh was among the BIMARU states. It was lagging behind, be it in roads, electricity, water supply, and law and order during the time of the Digvijaya Singh government. When the BJP government was formed, the state moved from the category of BIMARU states to developed states.
In the 2018 election, the BJP had got more votes [than the Congress]. Technically, just by a difference of three to four seats, and on the basis of false promises, the Congress formed a government by accident. In the 15 months that they were in power, the Kamal Nath government worked on the directions of the same ‘Mr Bantadhar’ (one who brings about ruin)—Digvijaya Singh—who had taken the state through a phase of bad governance and turned it into a BIMARU state. The Kamal Nath government discontinued many welfare schemes, be it of the Central government or the state, and snatched away the rights of the poor.
