Former Jharkhand Chief Minister Arjun Munda today criticised the UPA government for miserably failing to deliver on all fronts during its ten-year tenure and appealed people to vote for BJP in the coming Lok Sabha elections.
Several scams have been unearthed during the UPA rule, Munda said while addressing a public meeting after BJP candidate Bidyut Baran Mahato filed his nomination from the Jamshedpur Lok Sabha seat on the last day of filing nomination.
Addressing the meeting, former deputy chief minister Raghuvar Das attacked the JMM as well as the Jharkhand Vikas Morcha (Prajatantrik) (JVM-P) for misleading the people.
Referring to JMM leaders switching over to BJP, Das said only "Laxmiputras" (rich) remained with the JMM, while the "Son of soil" were coming out of the party as they have lost faith in it.
He said the identity of JMM would be wiped out if the trend continued.
Das also pulled up the sitting MP from Jamshedpur Dr Ajay Kumar, who was in the fray in the ensuing elections on a JVM-P ticket, and described him as a representative of corporate houses.
