Patna: Bihar Government Minister Dilip Jaiswal expressed his views on various current issues, including the vandalism near a mosque in Delhi, controversies linked to Congress in Madhubani, the release of draft voter lists in Uttar Pradesh, and slogans raised at SIR and JNU. He also delivered sharp remarks on the Congress party’s functioning, internal conflicts, and its future prospects.
Jaiswal criticized the language used in Congress rallies, stating that the party frequently resorts to abusive remarks, including objectionable comments directed at the Prime Minister, who he described as one of the world’s most popular leaders.
The minister pointed out that whenever Rahul Gandhi travels abroad, attempts begin within Congress to present Priyanka Gandhi as a separate leader. This, he said, indicates deepening internal differences in the party, which is gradually fading from the national political scene.
Regarding the revision of voter lists, Jaiswal noted that the initiative started in Bihar. He claimed that Rahul Gandhi and Tejashwi Yadav tried to mislead the public through rallies and attempted to tarnish the Election Commission’s image. The Supreme Court has since directed the removal of names of deceased voters, duplicates, those living abroad, untraceable voters, and illegal residents from the electoral rolls.
On Congress’s future, the minister stated the party is in its final phase. He suggested that the party is marked by continuous internal division and that Rahul Gandhi seems destined to dismantle Congress from the political map of India. This, he added, explains the discussions about bringing Priyanka Gandhi to the forefront, as Rahul Gandhi has reportedly failed in his leadership.
Addressing the Viksit India Guarantee Employment and Livelihood Mission rural scheme, Jaiswal said the opposition should recognise that older employment programmes were plagued with corruption. The new policy guarantees 125 days of employment instead of 100, focusing on building solid infrastructure rather than only labour-intensive work, which was prone to misuse. The scheme promises employment to the poor, timely wages, and strict monitoring.
Responding to slogans raised at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), he described JNU as a prestigious institution that should not become a centre for political agitation. He accused some individuals of associating with anti-national forces under the guise of freedom of expression, emphasising that freedom of speech does not permit statements against the country.
