BJP resolution urges workers to expose Cong lies on vaccines

Bhopal: With an eye on the upcoming civic elections, Madhya Pradesh BJP has decided to reach out to the masses and expose the lies and false propaganda of Congress against the state government and its vaccination drive. This was stated by state BJP president Vishnu Dutt Sharma at the party state working committee meeting on Thursday.Highlighting the deliberations at the meeting, Sharma said two resolutions were passed- political and Covid-19 crisis - to chalk out the future roadmap and action to relieve the public from day-today problems.The political resolution tabled by the BJP highlighted the decisions taken by the Shivraj Singh Chouhan government during the past 15 months. Chouhan took charge in March 2020 and announced to revive all welfare schemes stopped by the previous Congress government led by Kamal Nath. "BJP leadership relieved the public from a corrupt and inactive government that betrayed all sections including the farmers, youth, women and labour class. Shivraj Singh Chouhan announced several new schemes, launched projects and even provided financial relief to the poor to help them recover from distress," read the political resolution. The resolution also mentioned coordination between the government and the organisation, role of BJP workers in the welfare schemes like Sambal, laptop to meritorious students, loan on zero interest to farmers, Ayushman health scheme and honorarium to farmers. "Government had spent Rs 92,000 crore on the farmers, passed an anti-religion conversion law and acted against mafias. The central government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi abrogated Article 370, 35 A from Jammu and Kashmir, brought farm laws for reforms in agriculture," stated the resolution.The BJP also criticised Congress for tool kit, clubhouse chat and calling Corona as Indian variant. Sharma said the resolution of Covid-19 crisis highlighted the work done by the central and state governments to effectively control the Covid-19 infection. Five schemes by the government received appreciation. The Kill Corona drive which increased testing facilities and expansion of health services, arrangements for oxygen during the crisis increased the number of beds in hospitals, he recalled.Sharma said that BJP national president JP Nadda in his address called upon the party workers to review and monitor all the schemes and make sure they reach up to the public under `Sewa Hi Sangathan' drive. "BJP workers will contact people in every block to know the problems and highlight the welfare schemes launched by the government. We will also ensure that the public should not get misinformed or misled on any issue," said Sharma.The political resolution was proposed by state general secretary Shardendu Tiwari. State general secretary Kavita Patidar proposed a resolution on works done by the BJP and the state government during Covid-19 crisis.
