Shimla: BJP leader Jai Ram Thakur criticized the current Congress government, accusing them of incompetence and financial mismanagement.

 He highlighted the contrast, stating that while the BJP took a loan of 6,000 crores in two years, the Congress government borrowed 12,000 crores in just 11 months.

Thakur, addressing a gathering in Shimla, emphasized the importance of women's participation in governance. He asserted that without the support of women, neither a government nor society can progress.

Thakur pledged that the BJP would empower women through its Women's Front, addressing issues ranging from state government guarantees to combating atrocities against women.

Taking a swipe at Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel, Thakur disputed Baghel's claims about fulfilling all promises within one year of his government.

Thakur promised to expose the truth through press conferences in Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, and Madhya Pradesh.

He further announced that the Women's Front would work towards bringing awareness about women-centric empowerment schemes initiated by the central and previous state governments.

Thakur highlighted BJP's achievements, such as the reduced bus fares for women and the Shagun scheme, pledging to take these initiatives to every household.

While acknowledging that guarantees might not have been issued, Thakur emphasized the BJP's commitment to tangible progress across all sectors.
