Haryana Congress president Kumari Selja on Wednesday said that the people have started questioning the ruling BJP's silence on burning issues like unemployment and have made up their mind to show the door to the saffron party in the upcoming assembly polls.

Selja said contrary to the M L Khattar-led Bharatiya Janata Party government's claim of giving a clean and transparent administration, "the truth is that this regime has been hit by a number of scams".

When asked about BJP making scrapping of Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir a big poll issue in the Haryana polls besides raising other issues surrounding nationalism, Selja said, "That is going to rebound because people have started to question their silence on critical issues like unemployment."
Asked about BJP's criticism about the promise of "freebies" for various sections in Congress's manifesto, Selja said, "I want to ask them when they did nothing for anyone during the five years, how did the state debt more than double. It shows their gross mismanagement."
