Rathore said-did not even keep the budget for the free smartphone scheme

With the beginning of the election year in Rajasthan, the process of allegations and counter-allegations has also started. Leader of Opposition Rajendra Rathore accused the Congress government of appeasement at the BJP headquarters on Friday. He said that those who helped in catching the accused of the Kanhaiya Lal murder case. Today they are being forced to stumble door to door for their own safety. This clearly shows that the Congress government has failed to protect the people of Rajasthan.
Rajendra Rathore said that Chataram, a government minister with status, abused Lord Ram. Against whom the case was registered. But no effective action was taken. Apart from this, incidents like sloganeering against the saffron rally, the acquittal of the Jaipur bomb blast accused, the Hindu New Year tableau, and stone pelting at rallies are due to the appeasement policy of Congress.
Rajsamand MP Diya Kumari said - Shambhudayal's murderers Dit youths helped in catching the terrorists. After that, the people who honored both youths are no longer supporting them. Due to this both the youths are unemployed and wandering pleading for security. His family and he are in danger of attack. But they are helpless due to a lack of security and help from the government. We have promised to help them personally in running their livelihood.
During this, Rajendra Rathod said that in the previous budget, about three thousand crore rupees were under the food and supplies department. Which was increased to a provision of seven thousand crores and changed from Food Supply Department to Cooperative Department. Minister Pratap Singh Khachariawas lodged a written objection to the Chief Minister for changing the item of the Annapurna Food Packet Scheme without bringing a proposal in the Assembly.
Apart from this, work orders worth Rs 1678 crore were given only in the mid-day meal scheme to benefit private firms under the guise of a tender of Rs 200 crore through Confed.
Accusing Chief Minister Gehlot, Rathore said that Ashok Gehlot, who objected to the photo of the then Chief Minister Vasundhara Raje on Bhamashah cards, is preparing to distribute 1.31 crore smartphones on Raksha Bandhan. They are preparing to flash their own photos on the screen. There is complete confusion regarding the purchase of smartphones. From which company will these smartphones be bought? On what basis will their tender be done?
How many companies will participate in the tender? No one is aware of this. Even if you estimate the cost of a smartphone as Rs 15,000. So a budget of 19 thousand 950 crores is made. No provision for this was made by the government in the current financial year.
Rathore said that the data of 62.94 lakh beneficiary families of the state was handed over to third parties in the name of re-registration. Due to this, there is a danger of cybercrime, sextortion, and other misuse towards these families. In this regard, Union Telecom Minister Ashwini Vaishnav also warned the general public about cyber fraud last month. He said that the Congress government, which promised to remove inflation, has increased VAT on petrol in the state from 26 percent to 31.04 percent. While diesel increased from 18 percent to 19.30 percent. Apart from this, in the case of market tax, it was increased from 1.60 paise to 2.60 paise. The electricity fuel surcharge has been increased by 60 paise per unit.
