How can we believe the words of Bhupender Hooda, because his statement is being refuted by the big leaders of his own party : Ashok Sharma

Chandigarh : Nov 19,2023: Brahmin Khap Haryana held a press conference in Chandigarh Press Club today to discuss their agenda over political power sharing in the state. Addressing the press conference, Brahmin Khap Haryana State President Ashok Sharma made it clear that whichever political party will give more representation to the Brahmin community in the Lok Sabha election, would be given complete support by the community.

He also said that it would review the 2019 elections to figure out how many seats were given to the Brahmin community by the political parties including the Congress, BJP, INLD, JJP and Aam Aadmi Party and which political party nominated members of the Brahmin community to the Rajya Sabha.

Referring to the statement given by former Chief Minister Bhupendra Singh Hooda on extending support to the Brahmin community, he further added that those who were shown as present to join the party, was the individual political decision and not the decision of the entire community.

He stressed the need for constituting Brahmin Regiment, and the candidates selected under EPBG must be made to join at the earliest. He added that Brahmins would support those who follow Sanatani tenets and patriotism.

Elaborating further on the EWS, he added that it must be segregated in two separate groups categorised as Group A and Group B and Brahmin community be kept in Group A under the arrangement. He said that instead of announcing that deputy chief minister would be from the Brahmin community, former CM Bhupendra Hooda Brahmin should announce that Congress will name the Chief Minister from the Brahmin community.

Mr. Sushil Gautam Sirsi, spokesperson Brahmin Khap Haryana, Prayag Raj Sarpanch and Patron Brahmin Sabha, Pundri and Mr. Roshan Lal Sharma, Bastara General Secretary district Brahmin Sabha Karnal were present during the press conference.

He said that how can we believe the words of Bhupender Hooda, because his statement is being refuted by the big leaders of his own party. This is an attempt to mislead the Brahmin community, but this time the Brahmins will be united and will not be misled by anyone.

In the end he appealed to all political parties to reveal how much representation they want to give to Brahmins.

Maham MLA Balraj Kundu held his first rally in Jind.

Will end Agniveer  scheme: Former CM Akhilesh Yadav

Fingers Raised on the fairness of Baghela's election

Jind, 19 November- Independent MLA from Meham Balraj Kundu held a public resolution rally at Eklavya Stadium in Jind today. Former UP CM Akhilesh Yadav and former Gujarat CM Shankar Singh Baghela also attended the massive rally. He was given a warm welcome here.

It is noteworthy that Meham's independent MLA Balraj Kundu had formed the Haryana Jansevak Party a few months ago, the first rally of which was in Jind today. Addressing the rally, former Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh Akhilesh Yadav said that Haryana has the highest number of youth in the Indian Army.  Despite the system like Agniveer, these youth are joining the army to serve the country.  He said that if Samajwadi Party comes to power, the Agniveer system will be abolished and the system will be restored as before.  Samajwadi Party will include this announcement first in its manifesto.

On this occasion, Akhilesh said that Jind's is a revolutionary land.  The message of the group that started from here has gone across the country.  In such a situation, we have to help Balraj Kundu in the resolution that he is moving ahead.  Akhilesh said that just as Samajwadi Party had done the work of increasing the respect of mothers, now Balraj Kundu's party will also do the same work on priority basis.  He said that the farmers of Haryana and Punjab had together protested against the three black laws of the country.  The government hatched many conspiracies to thwart this movement, but the farmers of Punjab and Haryana did not bow down before the government.  He said that farmers also lost their lives in the movement, but the farmers did not leave the movement. Farmers deserve congratulations for this.  Yadav said that now a new party has been formed in Haryana.  He said that when a new party is formed, new people join and the new party is led by the youth.  The command of Haryana Jansevak Party is in the hands of Balraj Kundu, who is young and thinks of taking Haryana state forward.  Therefore, we have to strengthen them.  He said that the way the entire country wants caste census today, Samajwadi Party will also work to get it done.  Today there are many castes in the country which are not even counted in the mainstream.  Along with this, there are many such castes which have not been identified even till date.  This voice has been raised from Uttar Pradesh and Bihar has also started it.

 On this occasion, former Gujarat Chief Minister Shankar Singh Baghela said that the next election is going to be NDA vs India.  Akhilesh Yadav will have an important contribution in this.  In such a situation, we have to strengthen ourselves, so that NDA can be given a befitting reply in the elections.  He said that democracy is so dominant that the fairness of elections has been questioned.  He said that it is necessary for the Supreme Court and the Election Commission to be impartial in the elections.  He said that we go to the Supreme Court for justice and hope that we will get justice, but now it is not so.  At the same time, the Election Commission is also accused of helping the ruling party, whereas the Election Commission has the responsibility of conducting elections honestly.  In such a situation, the honesty of the Election Commission will also be worth seeing in the upcoming elections.  Baghela said that today, whoever raises voice against BJP, CBI and ED are deployed against him.  When a person comes under pressure and takes refuge in BJP, his character becomes clear.  In such a situation, we have to vote in this election keeping everything in mind.  In that we have to see who can do us good.  He said that we are farmers, hence our MSP should be regularized and a law should be made for this.  At the same time, the distressed farmer should also be helped.  He said that it also has to be seen who can do what regarding the safety of women.  Along with this, we need education, we need employment, youth also need good education and employment.  Therefore, farmers, youth and women should see which party will do good for us.
