Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): The All India Congress Committee (AICC) General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi strongly raised the issues of rising inflation and unemployment in poll-bound Madhya Pradesh, while simultaneously launching scathing attacks at the ruling BJP government, as she addressed a huge public gathering in Dhar on Thursday.
She also highlighted that PM Modi prefers to ‘skip’ CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan's name in his speeches given in Madhya Pradesh.
"PM Modi hardly takes name of Shivraj during the speeches here. This confirms that Shivraj Singh Chouhan is not becoming the Chief Minister of Madhya Pradesh.
"However, Modi does mention the name of Congress 50 times during his 50-minute speech. I wish instead of Congress, he would have emphasised on 'Vikas' during his public address."
