Union Minister Smriti Irani
In poll-bound Madhya Pradesh Union Minister Smriti Irani on Thursday attacked the Congress party and said it “considers women as just an ornament”.
“On 28th when you’ll vote for BJP, you’ll vote against a Congress that considers women as just an ornament. The vote will be against the culture of Congress that makes low-level remarks against women,” news agency ANI quoted Irani as saying from Bhopal’s Ibrahim Ganj.
Meanwhile, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Amit Shah on Thursday also attacked the Congress party and asked who is the grand old party’s leader in Madhya Pradesh?
“We will contest polls in Madhya Pradesh under the leadership of CM Shivraj Singh Chouhan. But I want to ask Congress party, who is their leader in Madhya Pradesh? These people neither have a leader nor a policy for the state,” Shah said in Shajapur, reported the news agency.
To elect members of the 230 constituencies in Madhya Pradesh, elections to the state Legislative Assembly will be held on 28 November 2018.
The elections are being seen as a direct political battle between the BJP and the Congress.
