Pawan Khera Criticizes BJP's Silence on Former Haryana CM Khattar

Senior Congress leader Pawan Khera questioned the absence of former Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar's posters during the Haryana election campaign. Amid BJP's outreach to Congress leader Kumari Selja, Khera criticized the BJP for replacing Khattar and alleged government failures in law, order, and unemployment.

Senior Congress leader Pawan Khera on Monday criticized the BJP for the absence of former Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar's posters during the Haryana election campaign. Khera expressed surprise at Khattar's diminishing presence despite his nine-and-a-half years as chief minister.

Khera's remarks come amid BJP's efforts to woo Congress leader Kumari Selja, who dismissed any intentions of switching parties, attributing BJP's outreach to a diversion from their alleged failures in Haryana. Khera asserted that people would replace the BJP at the upcoming polls.

Highlighting government failures, Khera elaborated on issues such as unemployment, exam paper leaks, and poor women's security. He condemned BJP's neglect of its senior leaders and noted Dalit atrocities during BJP's rule, contrasting it with Congress's record of appointing Dalit presidents.
