Podcast | Sena-BJP Ally Only to Stay in Power Not for People
The Quint’s chaupal reached Nagpur to speak to the citizens ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
One of the most crucial issues that the Vidarbha region has been grappling with is the demand for Vidarbha as a separate state.
“To be very honest, the present BJP government in the state has ditched the people of Vidarbha. In 2014, they made promises for Vidarbha. Once they were in Mumbai and Delhi, they comfortably forgot about the issue of a separate state,” said Nitin Ronghe, an activist and a Nagpur resident.
“BJP wants to rule Mumbai and Delhi at the cost of Vidarbha and abandon the people of this region,” he added.
The students participating in the chaupal, however, did not support the demand.
