Rajasthan Congress Accuses BJP of Delaying Polls
The Congress party in Rajasthan is accusing the BJP-led state government of delaying panchayat and local body elections.
They say the government is using the 'One State, One Election' idea as an excuse.
The Congress claims that the government is not ready to hold the elections and has even delayed the process of deciding the boundaries for the wards.
They also say that the central government has not given Rajasthan Rs 3,000 crore because of this.
On the other hand, the BJP says that the Election Commission is handling the delimitation process without any political interference.
The BJP also accuses the Congress of trying to make the delimitation process political and fears defeat in the upcoming elections.
