Shivpuri:
Union Minister and BJP’s Guna candidate Jyotiraditya Scindia on Wednesday said the Congress has become ‘behosh’ (oblivious) because of the ‘josh’ (passion) of BJP workers.
He was speaking at a meeting of BJP workers at Khaniyadhana in Shivpuri district, which falls under Guna constituency.
“Because of the ‘josh and hosh’ (passion and alertness) of the BJP workers, the Congress has become ‘behosh’. We should not sit still until we achieve Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s target of winning more than 400 Lok Sabha seats. ” he said.
He urged party workers to reach out to 370 new voters at every booth to ensure a historic victory for the Bharatiya Janata Party.
His grandmother, late BJP stalwart Vijayaraje Scindia, used to wear a ‘gamcha’ (cotton scarf) to deal with the heat and he too keeps an onion in his pocket during campaigns, the Union minister said. Traditionally it is believed that the onion prevents heat stroke.
BJP workers would have to work so hard that Congress would not gain consciousness at all, Mr. Scindia further said.
The Congress has fielded Rao Yadvendra Singh Yadav against Mr Scindia in the Guna seat, which has a sizeable number of Yadav voters.
In 2019, Mr Scindia, as a Congress candidate, lost to the BJP’s Krishna Pal Singh Yadav by over 1.25 lakh votes. Mr Scindia joined the BJP in 2020.
