'BJP always admires tribal legacy and cares for rights'
The Morning Standard
|December 12, 2023
A senior BJP leader from the tribal belt of Jashpur in northeast of Chhattisgarh capital Raipur, Vishnu Deo Sai (59) emerged as the "favourite" candidate for the chief minister's post. After he was elected the leader of the BJP legislature party, he spoke with Ejaz Kaiser on the formation of the government, challenges, and the plan of action. Excerpts:
-
What's your reaction to the BJP's return to power in Chhattisgarh?
The BJP got the mandate from the people who voted for our party. Every segment of the population who was distressed during the five-year rule of the Congress government now feels relieved. The people looked determined not to vote for the corrupt Congress.
Did you expect the party leadership to select you for the CM's post?
I am delighted and would like to extend my gratitude to my party leadership for reposing immense confidence in me and giving the responsibility of the chief minister to a small worker. This opportunity to lead the Chhattisgarh government means a lot since it also reflects the trust of PM Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah and party president JP Nadda, besides. the party workers. I am grateful to all of them.
Is your election as CM an attempt to win over tribals?
