WHY BJP HERO TO ZERO IN YAVATMAL-TARUN BHARAT DETAIL REPORT


WHY BJP HERO TO ZERO IN YAVATMAL-TARUN BHARAT DETAIL REPORT


Farm activist Kishore Tiwari of the Vidarbha Jan Andolan Samiti is livid at the election results. “The Congress contested this election with the ugly tag of 7234 farm suicides in Vidarbha since 2004. But the opposition was on the back foot. The BJP-Sena failed to take advantage of voters’ unrest because of infighting and failure to check the ruling parties’ game-plan to systematically divide the saffron votes,” said Tiwari. “The election was stagemanaged with all major parties sailing in the same boat.
Irrespective of political divide, these leaders are more keen on protecting interests of cash-rich industrialists, builders and not that of the general public. Top leaders of the opposition wanted the same government to return to power so that their business contracts for toll collection, power plants and SEZ continued. But sadly this is happening at the cost of thousands of cotton farmers who died because of the government’s wrong policies,” said Tiwari.
