Maharashtra Congress president Ashok Chavan on Sunday accused the BJP-led government in the state of “holding common citizens and farmers to ransom” and said time has come for people to vote it out of power. Addressing a Banjara community rally in Solapur district, the former CM said the Fadnavis government has “failed” to solve the problems being faced by farmers.
Chavan said the BJP-Shiv Sena government has “held common citizens and farmers to ransom” by making false promises. “At a time when farmers are committing suicide, the government is in deep slumber,” the LS MP from Nanded alleged. Chavan said the Banjara community has always supported the Congress and assured the party would stand by them.
