Shivraj Singh Chouhan: Raj Thackrey of Madhya Pradesh

Bhopal: And now Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan attacked people from Bihar in particular in his speech, saying that the government would not allow the industries in Madhya Pradesh to give employment to people from other states.

Following his statement Chouhan is now being branded as the Raj Trahckrey of Madhya Pradesh.

Chouhan’s reported statement came at a programme at Satna, about 485 kilometer north west from Bhopal on Thursday, ahead of ensuing civic bodies elections in the state. The elections are to be held in the next couple of months.
Chouhan addressing the gathering at BTI Ground and striking a chord with the local people said “This should not happen that plants be established in Satna and people from Bihar get the jobs. We will not allow this. I have imposed the condition that the jobs be given to local youths only.”

Chouhan’s speech was surprising given the fact he never advocated regionalism in his four years tenure so far.
