Jagdalpur, August 24 (HS). Under the joint leadership of Bastar District Congress Committee city/rural, in the presence of former minister in-charge Mohan Markam, today on Saturday, Congress officials and workers held a day-long dharna against the state government at Sirhasar Chowk regarding the malicious arrest of Bhilai MLA Devendra Yadav by the state BJP government regarding the Balodabazar case and submitted a memorandum to the SDM in the name of His Excellency the Governor.
During this, former minister and in-charge Mohan Markam said that the BJP government of the state is responsible for the entire incident of Balodabazar episode. Due to poor law and order and administration's autocracy and negligence, anti-social elements infiltrated the movement of Satnami community in Balodabazar and such a big incident was carried out. The role of BJP district president Sanam Jangde and other BJP leaders is also suspicious in this entire movement. The state government is trying to save them. The state government is hiding its failure and the defamation it has caused in the entire country. Opposition leaders are being harassed. The arrest of Congress MLA Devendra Yadav shows the panic of BJP. This is a well-planned conspiracy of the state government to defame the opposition.
City District Congress President Sushil Maurya said that MLA Devendra Yadav neither gave a speech in Balodabazar nor participated in the Collector Office demonstration. He came back after staying in the crowd for five minutes. There is no evidence of his involvement in any violent incident anywhere, nor was he involved in any kind of incident. The police have arrested him wrongly. The government and the police should tell which BJP leaders were given notice and questioned. Justice-based action should be taken. The character and behavior of the BJP government has become undemocratic in just eight months.
Former Mayor Jagdalpur Jatin Jaiswal said that the state government arrested the opposition MLA by implicating him in a false case. Even journalists are not safe in the BJP government. Ganja is kept in the vehicles of journalists to falsely implicate them. In the Balodabazar case, people of Satnami community and Congress were identified and put in jails. Congress is not going to be afraid of this tyrannical character of the BJP government. Due to such acts, our workers will raise the voice of the people against the government more strongly. The horrific incident of arson in Balodabazar happened due to the great negligence of the administration and the failure of the government's intelligence. If the government and administration had become alert in time and had accepted the demand of the society for a CBI inquiry earlier, then the incident that brought shame to the state could have been avoided. The BJP government of the state is responsible for this entire incident.
During this, senior Congress leader Satpal Sharma, Women Congress President Lata Nishad, District President Anita Poyam, National Spokesperson Javed Khan also addressed the gathering. The program was conducted by councilor Suryapani. On this occasion, former minister/program in-charge Mohan Markam, District President Sushil Maurya, Corporation President Kavita Sahu, Leader of Opposition Udaynath James, Jatin Jaiswal, senior Congress leader Hanuman Dwivedi, Angad Prasad Tripathi, Ramashankar Rao, Anwar Khan, Atiksha Shukla, all councilors, block presidents, Youth Congress, NSUI, Women Congress, Sevadal presidents and workers, including presidents, officers and workers of various front cells etc. were present.
