BJP has lodged a complaint with the State Election Commission, Chhattisgarh against the launching and announcement of Dr Khoobchand Baghel Health Assistance Scheme by the state government even after the enforcement of the election model code of conduct.
The complaint lodged in the context of the three-tier Panchayat election.
The BJP stated that the state government announced the change in Health Security Scheme, which is a direct mode to influence the electors across the state. The scheme was announced the changes on January 17, 2020. No prior sanction was taken from the State Election Commission (SEC) before launching/announcement, party claimed.
The way announcement was made, it is to lure the rural electors. BJP demanded stern action to ensure free and fair elections in the state even though the three-tier panchayat election is non-political but all the political backed candidates are in the election fray.
