Himachal Congress MLA asks BJP Minister to stay in limits

Published

on

Amid escalating war of words between Himachal Pradesh Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur and Leader of the Opposition Mukesh Agnihotri, Congress MLA Vikramaditya Singh on Saturday asked one of the ministers to stay in his ‘Khalti’ (skin).

Vikramaditya Singh said that this ‘unbridled’ Minister of the BJP, Rakesh Pathania, has no sense of the dignity of the language. “The public knows the way he speaks. He used words like the ‘father’ of the Congress for former MP late Ram Swaroop. The Leader of the Opposition did not use any inappropriate language. The Congress will give a befitting reply. Rakesh Pathania is shocked by the activism of Nikka (Ranbir Singh Nikka).”

Ranbir Singh Nikka (BJP), who is a political rival of Pathania, had levelled serious corruption charges against the Minister. Nikka was denied party ticket in the last Assembly elections held in 2017.

Vikramaditya said, Nikka will fight politically and will also answer all his questions. “Instead of talking about his achievements, the Chief Minister is attacking the family of the opposition leader. Mukesh Agnihotri is not alone, the entire Congress party is with him. The BJP had to face defeat in the by-elections, they will meet the same fate in the upcoming assembly elections,” the Congress leader said.

He also said that no work has been done in the state in four-and-a-half years. “People are suffering from problems like unemployment, inflation. The CM and his ministers are making such remarks to divert the attention of the public. The Congress will not accept this,” the Congress MLA added.

Mumbai: Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has made it clear on the Hindi-Marathi language dispute that linguistic discrimination and violence cannot be tolerated. If anyone instigates violence in the name of Marathi language or takes the law into his own hands, strict action will be taken against him because it is the government’s responsibility to maintain law and order. He said that in the Mira Road Hindi Marathi violence case, the police have registered a case and taken action.

A committee has been formed in the matter of Marathi and Hindi language. Whatever is better for the students on its recommendation, the government will implement it. No decision has been taken under anyone’s pressure. He said that the recommendation for Hindi language was made during the Maha Vikas Aghadi rule itself, but now these same people are opposing it. The public knows everything.

He said that in this election, BJP has got 51 percent Marathi votes. Violence and discrimination in the name of language cannot be tolerated. Marathi is a source of pride for us, but we do not oppose Hindi. What will happen if a Marathi businessman in another state is asked to speak his language? In Assam, he was asked to speak Assamese. He said that strict action will be taken against those who break the law.

On the fourth day of the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly, the opposition has made several serious allegations against the ministers of the government while protesting on the steps of the Vidhan Bhavan. The ministers included in the cabinet of the state government are misusing their powers and occupying government lands in the state.

Just as the ruling front is trying to defame the holy pilgrimage of Hinduism, Wari, by calling Vitthurai and Warkars urban Naxalites and urban Maoists, in the same way it is insulting Wari Palkhi.
