Soldiers turned into pracharaks of BJP: Kharge slams Modi govt

New Delhi, 22/10: Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Sunday objected to the Narendra Modi government “turning” civil servants and soldiers to “political workers” and “marketing agents” of the ruling BJP, saying the whole administration has officially become “pracharak” of BJP.

Kharge’s stinging criticism in a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi came against the backdrop of the government’s decisions to deploy senior officials as ‘rath prabharis’ in districts to “showcase achievements of the last nine years” .
