On Saturday, the Brahmin community took out a rally and demanded action against Nand Kumar Baghel as the BJP was furious on this issue against the Chief Minister.
Baghel said, “As a son I respect my father but as chief minister the law is supreme.” In retaliation, the Chief Minister demanded an apology from the BJP and said that it has insulted the farmers. The incident pertains to state BJP in-charge D. Purandeshwari, who allegedly made objectionable remarks against the CM in Bastar.
In the state, the BJP and the Congress are trying to corner each other on various issues and often the statements lead to controversy.
Chhattisgarh Janata Congress leader Amit Jogi said, all leaders should refrain from making objectionable remarks and should learn from Ajit Jogi, Raman Singh and TS Singhdeo.
