Zero promises fulfilled, says Manish Tewari in 56-pt chargesheet against BJP
Manish Tewari reiterated the challenge for an open debate with his BJP rival Sanjay Tandon, telling the latter that he will be waiting for him at the Chandigarh Press Club on May 30, 11 am to debate and discuss all the issues related to Chandigarh.
Congress candidate Manish Tewari on Tuesday presented a 56-point chargesheet against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), stating that it had fulfilled zero promises made to the city residents.
Addressing a press conference here today, Tewari reiterated the challenge for an open debate with his BJP rival Sanjay Tandon, telling the latter that he will be waiting for him at the Chandigarh Press Club on May 30, 11 am to debate and discuss all the issues related to Chandigarh.
Referring to the BJP’s manifesto, he remarked, the BJP had done a PhD in “lying in writing”.
Tewari listed some unfulfilled promises of the BJP like preparing a ‘Citizens Charter’, ‘public durbar’ by MP Kiron Kher, regularising need-based changes in the Chandigarh Housing Board flats, extending the limits of Lal Dora in the villages and resolving the issue of traffic congestion.
He challenged the BJP to cite a single promise that it has fulfilled in the last ten years. “The only achievement of the BJP was the murder of democracy committed through Anil Masih,” he remarked, while pointing out how the BJP tried to steal the mayor’s elections. “That is why I am saying that a vote for Sanjay Tandon is a vote for Anil Masih,” he remarked.
