Manish Tewari is election tourist, voters will give return ticket on June 4: BJP President

Chandigarh, 22 April 2024
Attacking INDIA bloc candidate Manish Tewari, Chandigarh BJP president Jitender Pal Malhotra today said the Congress leader is an election tourist and voters will give return ticket to him on June 4.

He said so while mentioning about Tewari’s previous constituencies in Anandpur Sahib and Ludhiana.

President Malhotra said his election tour in Chandigarh is till June 1, 2024. After this, on June 4, the voters of Chandigarh will issue him a return ticket from the counting centre, so that he can contest for the parliamentary election in 2029 from his next constituency.

Malhotra has given this reaction to the media in reply to Manish Tewari’s statement on BJP candidate Sanjay Tandon.

He said the BJP is an organisation of loyal workers and leaders. For them, the nation is supreme and they can do anything to protect its honour, that too without thinking what will happen next.

Taking a dig at BJP candidate’s reaction, Tewari had posted a couplet on X to attack him.

Malhotra said, “Unlike the Congress, be it Sanjay Tandon or any other BJP leader, his focus is on working in the interest of the country. The BJP government has done better work in the last 10 years, so it will only do better in future.”

He said Prime Minister Narendra Modi has changed the condition and direction of the country during his tenure, whereas the way the Congress has slowed down the pace of development and spoiled the schemes, today the condition and direction of the entire Congress has deteriorated.

The Congress, which calls itself the oldest party of India, remained in power for the longest time after independence, but despite this, the plight of Congress today is a living example.

Congress is not able to find candidates to field in the Lok Sabha elections. Many candidates like Manish Tewari are running from here to there as fugitives from their old parliamentary constituencies, he added.
