Ahead of the crucial assembly elections in Chhattisgarh, the allegations and counter-allegations between the ruling Congress and the opposition BJP have intensified. Amid all electrifying campaigns from both parties, Chhattisgarh CM Bhupesh Baghel, who is seeking a second straight term in the state, said that the Congress government in the state has worked for the welfare of people and thus is confident of retaining power in the state.
Reacting to a question of why the BJP ignored former CM Raman Singh for five years, Baghel said that Singh still maintains a strong command within the saffron party and had a greater say in ticket distribution despite Home Minister Amit Shah staying in the state for several nights.
