UDAIPUR: State BJP president Satish Poonia during his Mewar tour visited Rajsamand on Sunday.
He visited Shrinath ji temple at Nathdwara. He addressed a gathering of BJP workers. While quoting the rape of a 15-year-old girl in Bundi and the recent attack on RTI activist, Poonia targeted the Congress and said a peaceful state like Rajasthan has become the capital of crime.
During discussions with the BJP office-bearers, he inquired about the programms of the BJP in Rajsamand and talked about strengthening the party before the upcoming elections. Poonia targeted the Congress and said that the Congress government had promised loan waiver of the farmers in Rajasthan but has not yet fulfilled the promise. The tribal youths are demanding employment but no employment is been given. The unemployment rate in Rajasthan is more than 27% in the state and a peaceful state like Rajasthan has become a crime capital.
Poonia said that Rahul Gandhi had come to Rajasthan to rally against inflation, but the inflation, corruption and anarchy in this country is all because of Congress party. Rajasthan has the most expensive electricity in the entire country. One village has boycotted electricity bills since many years. Higher VAT on diesel and petrol is in the state is the reason for rise in the inflation. The fuel prices in the neighbouring state is lower than Rajasthan, he said.
