MP's BJP govt fell short of expectation: Ahmad

Bhopal, Jan 18 (UNI) Accusing Madhya Pradesh's Bharatiya Janata Party regime of falling short of public expectation, Union Minister of State for Communication and Information Technology Shakeel Ahmad today said people were vexed over several problems including corruption.

''The government has failed on the development, law and order and minorities' security fronts. Even the chief minister (Shivraj Singh Chouhan) and his family members are charged with corruption.

Congress success in recent bypolls is proof of public anger,'' said the Congress spokesman who is on a two-day visit to the state.

Pointing a finger at the mass Surya Namaskar coinciding with Swami Vivekananda's birth anniversary on January 12, he added that the government's attention should be on development and public welfare.

''Behind such programmes an agenda lie to divide society. My party conducted several public agitations in this state and they received widespread public support. The Congress will win the coming Betul Lok Sabha byelection and the Assembly hustings scheduled later this year,'' the minister claimed.
