Mumbai | Shiv Sena on Monday alleged that the Bhartiya Janta Party (BJP) has started losing contact with the poor section of the society.
Attacking the BJP for its ‘Sampark Se Samarthan’ initiative, in its editorial mouthpiece ‘Samana’, Shiv Sena said: “The people contacting Madhuri Dixit, Salman Khan, Ratan Tata, Ambani, Adhani for support, have lost contact with the poor.”
Shiv Sena further criticized the BJP government for the increasing number of suicides across Maharashtra. “The state is crippled by poverty and hunger, which is driving people to commit suicide along with their families. We have to get out of the illusion that Prime Minister Modi will do anything for the poor,” it stated.
The party claimed that the funds pumped in by foreign investors have only worsened the situation of the poor in the state. While adding that national party has ignored the welfare of farmers while focusing on luxury projects like bullet trains, metro, and hyper-city.
