Leader of opposition in Madhya Pradesh Assembly, Ajay Singh on Wednesday charged that corruption had reached its maximum limit in the state under the BJP government rule.
Addressing a public meeting at Jawad about 20 kms from Neemuch in Madhya Pradesh on the first day of the second leg of his Jana Chetna Yatra, Singh said that the corruption witnessed in Madhya Pradesh during the 50 years before 2003 was nothing as compared to that prevailing in the last eight years.
He said he had been forced to take out his Jana Chetna Yatra as Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan had failed to reply to all the 36 issues that were raised in the no-confidence motion against the state government during the winter session of the State assembly.
He said that the Yatra was an attempt to reach out to people and to present before them the real face of ruling BJP.
The leader of the opposition said it was possible just before the 2013 assembly elections, the state may get electricity for 24 hours a day and asked the people not to be swayed by it.
Speaking on the occasion, the Madhya Pradesh Congress president Kantilal Bhuria said that the present rule of the BJP in the state was marked by fear, hunger and corruption.
Bhuria said the Centre was sending crores of rupees to the state but most of the money was being gobbled up in corruption by BJP leaders.
