Jaipur, Rajasthan: Congress National General Secretary Sachin Pilot has launched a strong attack on the BJP-led central government, alleging that it repeatedly announces major decisions and later finds itself forced to withdraw them. He claimed that such policy reversals are causing difficulties for ordinary citizens, farmers, and young people. Citing the three farm laws, caste census, and Agnipath recruitment scheme, Pilot questioned the government’s policies and decision-making process.
Speaking to the media in Jaipur, Sachin Pilot said farmers had to protest for nearly one and a half years against the three agricultural laws. He also expressed concern over the uncertainty surrounding the future of young people because of the Agniveer scheme. He alleged that the government neither clearly explains the reasons behind its decisions nor provides satisfactory explanations when those decisions are withdrawn.
Targets BJP Over Unemployment and Inflation
Pilot said unemployment and inflation continue to trouble young people across the country, while farmers are also dissatisfied over several issues.
He alleged that the BJP has had 12 years in power at the Centre but has failed to address public concerns effectively. According to him, people are now looking for a change, and the BJP’s political decline has already begun.
Raises Questions Over Election Commission and SIR
The Congress leader also questioned the functioning of the Election Commission and the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process.
He alleged that attempts to remove crores of names from electoral rolls amount to interference with people’s democratic rights. He emphasized that every eligible citizen must be allowed to exercise their right to vote.
Comments on Punjab Politics
Speaking about the political situation in Punjab, Sachin Pilot claimed that the Aam Aadmi Party is losing strength. He said the Congress and the Aam Aadmi Party are likely to be the principal contenders in the upcoming political contest.
Pilot also accused the BJP of misusing constitutional institutions and investigative agencies for political purposes. He stressed that maintaining the independence, neutrality, and credibility of democratic institutions is essential for the country’s democratic system.
