Congress Accuses BJP of Diverting Attention with Controversial Slogans

The Congress has accused the BJP in Maharashtra of using slogans like 'batenge to katenge' and 'vote Jihad' to distract from key issues such as food inflation. They claim the BJP-led government's policies have led to skyrocketing prices and criticize attempts to divert public attention.

On Thursday, Congress accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Maharashtra of using divisive slogans to shift focus from essential issues, notably food inflation.

Congress spokesperson Pawan Khera criticized the BJP-led government's policy failures, pointing to rising costs of staples, which have strained household budgets as assembly elections approach.

Khera challenged slogans like 'batenge to katenge', arguing they're used to distract from governance failures, while questioning the longevity of BJP power amid ongoing issues like illegal immigration.
