Imphal, July 10:
Not only has tainted legislators been accommodated among the Ministers retained in the new SPF Council of Ministers but the downsizing exercise has ignored proper minority Muslim representation, charged BJP State Unit president Th Chaoba Singh.
Speaking during the inaugural programme of the two day state Level BJP Leadership Training Camp at Kalimai mandop near 1st MR complex today the former MP accused both the Congress led Central and State Government of included several tainted Ministers.
The present SPF Government do have the faith and moral support of the general public for inclusion of legislators linked to even the killing of a child student, Chaoba alleged without divulging details.
Alleging that Congress party violated election rules during the 14th Lok Sabha polls, the BJP leader asserted that Congress had campaigned with false pretext of accommodating adequate minority community representatives after the Ministry trimming exercise.
Stating that non-accommodation of Muslim representative with Cabinet ranks in the SPF council of ministers clearly reflects not only inefficient administrative, Chaoba said such irresponsible and misleading comments pose serious question at the integrity of the Chief Minister himself.
Directing his attack towards the SPF partner CPI the former MP said ever since the Communist party representative was assigned charge of FCS Department public distribution system has suffered miserably with the general public even unable to procure essential items as was expected from the Government.
To prevent further rot in the administration in the backdrop of SPF Govt�s mismanagement time has arrived for the BJP in collaboration with the public to launch agitation for safeguarding the rights of the farmer community and aged citizens, stressed Chaoba.
Calling upon the participants at the training programme to highlight misconduct of the SPF Govt, he said if the people do not react at the earliest national integration and welfare programmes initiated by the BJP would never reach the grassroots level.
The BJP president also led the training participants in paying floral tribute at the portrait of Dr Shyama Prasad Mukherjee.
