Party kicks off campaign on corruption plank

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) officially launched its poll campaign on Monday,with representatives of the party saying they would fight the election on two broad planks— corruption and the lack of law and order in the city. Those present at the meeting,including the BJP candidate for the newly formed Noida Assembly seat,Dr Mahesh Sharma said while crores of rupees have been spent on symbols such as Rashtriya Dalit Prerna Sthal and Mahamaya Inter College,the rest of the city was ignored,and they would seek to correct these decisions if they get voted to power.

Mahesh Sharma said,“The government in its term has done nothing for the residents of the city. It has bungled the land acquisition process,while officials continued to take huge bribes. On one school named after the CM,crores have been spent. If that money was spent on several schools,the education system in the city could have been bettered. Law and order doesn’t exist here. Kidnappings happen every day. These are dangerous signs for the city,” said Sharma.
