Indore (Madhya Pradesh): Former minister and Congress leader Jitu Patwari said that the Centre and state governments have shown people what tyranny is.
“We heard about tyranny, but this government has shown us what tyranny is. Disqualification of Rahul Gandhi from Lok Sabha, my suspension from the state assembly, and arrest of Vikrant Bhuria have exposed the real face of the government, that is suppressing people’s voice,” Patwari said.
He was talking to the media on the sidelines of the ‘Sankalp Satyagrah’ organised to protest against the disqualification of Rahul Gandhi from Parliament, at Rajiv Gandhi Square, on Sunday.
The former minister also said that Narendra Modi had said ‘Na Khaunga, Na Khane Dunga’, but he is hiding ‘Kisne Khaya’. “If you ask about shell companies of Adani, then you will be disqualified from the Parliament,” he said.
The former minister also targeted BJP president JP Nadda, and home minister Amit Shah and said that they are visiting the state but couldn’t tell people why the conditions of farmers worsened in the state and why their debt is increasing.
“People will teach a lesson to them in the coming elections as it would be an election between the people and BJP. Congress will be a medium for the same. Party will secure over 160 seats in the state in coming elections,” Patwari added.
