Ahead of the elections in Uttarakhand, Union Minister Anurag Thakur and Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami led Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) ‘Vijay Sankalp Yatra’ in Bageshwar district today.

The rally was led by Thakur and Dhami in the Kumaon region of the state.

Addressing the rally, Thakur said that the BJP completed 7 years under PM Narendra Modi’s leadership, but no one from Rahul Gandhi to Sonia Gandhi can accuse PM Modi of a 7 paisa scam.

‘We have given corruption-free, development-oriented govt’

“We have given corruption-free, development-oriented government; the Union Minister said and took swipe at the Congress over 2G, 3G and other scams that took place during the UPA’s tenure.

On Saturday, BJP president JP Nadda took out a ‘Vijay Sankalp Yatra’ in Haridwar with the CM also participating in it.

“We have seen a new story of development in Uttarakhand. Earlier, when a passenger used to come to Uttarakhand, he used to get the one signal – one-way traffic. Now all roads are open 24 hours in BJP government,” Nadda had said.

He further said that by seeing the enthusiasm, excitement and gathering of the people of Uttarakhand and Haridwar, it is clear that they have made up their mind to give BJP their blessing again.

If we talk about the development of the state, the statement by PM Modi, that we will use double engine government to take Uttarakhand towards development, has turned true, he added.
