JMM-led govt using treasury to lure voters ahead of J'khand polls: AJSU
AJSU Party chief Sudesh Mahto on Sunday accused the Hemant Soren-led government of "using the treasury" to lure voters ahead of the assembly polls.
He alleged that the government has cheated youths and women of the state by not fulfilling its promises.
"The government is using its treasury in the name of various schemes only to lure voters ahead of the assembly polls in the state," Mahto alleged while addressing the 'Jharkhand Navnirman Sankalp Rally' at Ranchi's Prabhat Tara Ground.
Thousands of youths from different districts of the state took part in the rally.
"The government is launching schemes when the election is just one or two months away. Had it been honest towards the people of the state, it would have launched these initiatives years back," Mahto said.
He alleged that the government cheated youths by not providing jobs and unemployment allowances.
"The government had promised Rs 5,000 and Rs 7,000 unemployment allowances to youth but did not provide these," he said.
