Gadkari walks on Modi’s path
Gujarat chief minister Narendra Modi’s developmental politics appears to have gone viral in the BJP. Party chief Nitin Gadkari in a bid to stake claim on the Congress’ “Garibi Hatao” campaign ahead of crucial Assembly elections in five
states said that his social enterprise backed by his business conglomerate would change the lives of the people for better in the suicide-prone Vidarbha region of Maharashtra.
Not to be left behind in the competitive developmental politics, Madhya Pradesh chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan too asserted that he would make his state numero uno in two years’ time.
Senior BJP leader Rajnath Singh, clearly impressed by Mr Gadkari’s blueprint in heralding broad-based prosperity in Vidarbha region, complimented him by claiming that “if similar experiments were to be replicated by 100 more people the face of the country could change for better”.
Though not yet having embarked on any rath yatra unlike his colleagues in the party, Mr Gadkari told a strong crowd at Nagpur that he is riding on a “parivartan yatra (one for change)” by telling people that he would free them from clutches of imported diesel by manufacturing enough CNG, bio-diesel and ethanol for which he has already sounded business tycoon Ratan Tata, Anand Mahindra and Hinduja of Ashok Leyland for an order of 1,000 trucks which can run on his fuels.
