MP Bypoll Exclusive: 'People will teach 'Gaddars' a lesson'
Madhya Pradesh Congress Working President Bala Bachchan spoke to Asianet Newsable correspondent Mohammad Yacoob about the mood in the state surrounding the by-election. He said the Congress has banked upon public sentiment against the 'Gaddars' (traitors) who destabilized the Kamal Nath government.
28 Assembly seats in Madhya Pradesh have gone to polls today. The by-election in the state was necessitated after 22 MLAs of the erstwhile Kamal Nath government switched over to the BJP in March 2020, leading to the fall of the 15-month-old Congress government. The Congress is hoping that there will be resentment on the ground against the 22 MLAs who deserted the party.
The Congress campaign strategy all along has been to brand these MLAs as 'Gaddars' or traitors. Whether or not the campaign succeeds will be known on November 10.
Meanwhile, Asianet Newsable's Mohammad Yacoob reached out Madhya Pradesh Congress Working President Bala Bachchan to understand the Congress campaign and how confident the party feel about its chances in the by-elections. Read on.
