Gujarat Deputy Chief Minister Harsh Sanghavi accused certain parties of trying to disrupt the state’s peace by misusing large sums of money through ‘hawala’ transactions. He made these claims during a campaign event for the upcoming local self-government elections. Sanghavi highlighted the improvements in basic amenities like electricity, water, and roads under BJP rule compared to the Congress era.
Sanghavi also criticized the Congress for its lack of development during its tenure, contrasting it with the progress made under the leadership of Narendra Modi when he was the Chief Minister of Gujarat. He emphasized the distribution of free food grains to those in need and pointed out specific development projects in the region, crediting the local BJP leadership for these initiatives.
Furthermore, Sanghavi accused certain opposition factions of hindering development and trying to stoke caste-based tensions. He urged the public to reject these negative influences in the upcoming elections to support what he described as the BJP’s development-focused agenda. Sanghavi expressed confidence that voters would back the BJP’s approach to governance.
In his assessment of the Congress’s electoral prospects, Sanghavi predicted a poor performance for the party in the local self-government elections, suggesting that it would not secure any taluka panchayat or district panchayat seats. He also commented on the lack of activity at the Congress office in Vadgam, likening it to a place where crows gather instead of party workers. Additionally, during the event, a leader from the Vankar community, Genabhai Parmar, formally joined the BJP in Sanghavi’s presence.
