Raipur, September 12, 2012
Finally, the Congress broke silence over Naveen Jindal – the party MP and industrialist who has been targeted on coal blocks allocation by its three senior leaders as state unit incharge BK Hariprasada has said that the law would take its own course on the steel tycoon. Hariprasada’s remarks came while he was interacting with media persons at Mana airport on Wednesday morning before he left for Bastar to take part in the party’s four collectorate-gherao programmes in Bastar division till September 14.
The organisation took sigh of relief with Hariprasada’s official statement on Jindal as it feels that now there is no need of clarification by PCC president Nandkumar Patel or any other leader on involvement of congressmen in coalgate in Chhattisgarh.
Notably, the last couple of days had been testing time for state Congress which was dismayed by negative comments given by senior leader Vidya Charan Shukla, Charandas Mahant and Ajit Jogi against Jindal.
When pointed that Shukla did not consider Jindal a Congressman, Hariprasada said Jindal was very much a Congress member besides being an industrialist.
Asked his take over Narendra Modi's new term for Congress – a cancer, Hariprasada said – “Cancer affects only an individual but the BJP is an epidemic that devours the entire population in a village or a town.”
At airport four Jogi stalwart legislators from Mahasamund district - Devendra Bahadur Singh, Paresh Bagbahra, Agni Chandrakar and Dr Haridas Bhardwaj met Hariprasada separately and urged him to repeat Singh as DCC Mahasamund president.
Earlier, Hariprasada was welcomed at airport by DCC Raipur Urban president Inderchand Dhariwal, chief Congress spokesperson Shailesh Nitin Trivedi, DCC Raipur Rural president Pankaj Sharma, party spokesperson Sushil Anand Shukla, etc.
