Chandigarh, November 17: Inflation has increased 1.5 times in just 20 days of Congress government formation in Haryana but the Congress Party is just bothered about grabbing the power, said the INLD chief and former Chief Minister, Mr Om Prakash Chautala at Palwal on Tuesday. He was addressing the INLD workers as part of its state wide mass contact programme.
INLD leader said that the people were suffering due to unprecedented price rise in all the necessary commodities, power-water crisis, deteriorating law & order situation and maladministration.
Mr Chautala said that the Hooda government cobbled together through “inducements and defections” would collapse under its own weight any time. The Congress party has formed the government in the state by using the horse-trading & cheap tactics would not last long. Congress abandoned all the democratic & moral norms in its pursuit & lust for power, he added. The people of the state had given mandate against the Congress and as the Congress party’s lost in 50 assembly seats and could won in just 40 seats.
Attacking the Hooda government, Mr Chautala said, “Normally there has been a Chief Parliamentary Secretary over the Parliamentary Secretaries but this time there are nine CPS but none is Parliamentary Secretary”. He announced that a fully geared INLD would soon take up the cudgels against the anti-people and anti-farmer policies and programmes of the state government.
INLD MLA Subhash Chaudhary, Jagdish Nayar, youth INLD president Baldev Singh Alawalpur, Devender Chauhan, District INLD president Mahender Chauhan and other senior INLD leaders were also present in the meeting.
