We have brought about a visible change in people’s lives. There is now financial security for farmers, the poor, laborers, and others due to our schemes. Other states may be seeing an economic slowdown, but not Chhattisgarh. Over Rs 1.5 lakh crore has directly gone into people’s accounts. This helps people buy things, creating a virtuous economic cycle. This change is visible even in Bastar, Baghel, who completed four years as CM on Saturday, said.
    What are the challenges in an election year? Whatever challenges are there, they are ours. I don’t consider the BJP a challenge in Chhattisgarh. Chhattisgarh has minerals and other natural resources in abundance, but why are 40% of its people still poor? Malnutrition affects 41% of people. We have a Maoist insurgency problem, he said.Actions by central agencies like ED and I-T are part of a conspiracy, he said. You (the BJP) are unable to fight politically, so you are trying to defame, discredit, and harass us. But the people are watching everything. They will answer. The previous BJP government, headed by Raman Singh, arrested me. See what happened next. Hum darne wale, jhukne wale log nahi (We are not the sort of people to be afraid of them or bow before them), he said.
     Source : TOIRahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra is bringing about a massive change, he believes. People are fed up with the environment of hate, inflation, and unemployment. Life will not continue as it is. People want jobs, development, education, and health. Mark my words, change is coming, Baghel said.He doesn’t think factionalism in Congress will have an impact and dismisses AAP despite the party hurting Congress on 31 seats in the recent Gujarat election. They may not be successful here as the situation in every state is different. Chhattisgarh has always been a bipolar state, and AAP will not be in a position to make any dent here. They may try, but AAP has no significance here. It is not even worth discussing, he said.Asked about the Center turning down his demand for the return of the money deposited by Chhattisgarh residents under the new pension scheme, the CM said: Nobody can stop the old pension scheme (restored in the state this March). It is the employees’ funds. It’s their contribution, and it’s their money. They can withdraw it.Share your views with us in the comment section.
