Seraj Floods: BJP Accuses Himachal Govt of Political Witch-hunt
The BJP in Himachal Pradesh has launched a scathing attack on the state government following the lodging of multiple FIRs against its supporters and flood-affected individuals in the Seraj region. The party alleges that these FIRs are politically motivated, aimed at silencing dissent and undermining relief efforts.
The BJP claims the government’s response to the recent devastating floods in Seraj has been inadequate and riddled with corruption. They allege widespread misuse of relief funds intended for the affected population.
Party leaders have demanded the immediate withdrawal of all FIRs filed against their supporters and those affected by the floods. They have also threatened further agitation if their demands are not met. This includes planned protests and potential legal action.
This escalation of tensions comes at a critical juncture for the state, as it struggles to recover from the widespread destruction caused by the floods. The BJP’s accusations raise serious questions about the transparency and effectiveness of the government’s relief operations, potentially impacting the already vulnerable flood victims. The coming days will be crucial in determining the trajectory of this political and humanitarian crisis.
