JAMMU, Apr 16: Congress leader Sachin Pilot hit the campaign trail here on Tuesday as a star campaigner and attacked the Election Commission<\/a> (EC) for \u201cremaining silent\u201d when the accounts of the main opposition party were frozen and elected chief ministers were sent to jail.Campaigning for his party\u2019s candidate Choudhary Lal Singh<\/a> from the Udhampur Lok Sabha constituency, Pilot accused the BJP government of playing \u201creligious politics to divert attention from its failures\u201d on the development front.
\n\u201cThe Election Commission is watching as a mute spectator. In connection with the Chandigarh mayoral elections, we had to move to the Supreme Court for justice, and we got it. They sealed the accounts of the Congress, put elected chief ministers in jail, and tried to muzzle the opposition,\u201d Pilot said while addressing a rally.
\nHe criticised the BJP leaders for allegedly using religion for political gains, saying, \u201cThey centre their politics around issues like mandir-masjid, Hindu-Muslim, Hindustan and Pakistan. However, they show little interest in issues concerning schools, colleges, hospitals, economy, employment, women, youth, farmers, and inflation.\u201d
\nPilot claimed that there is a wave of change sweeping the entire country.
\n\u201cI went to Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, Maharashtra, Punjab, Harayan, Rajasthan<\/a>, Chhattisgarh. I want to tell you \u2013 it is not true what the media and social media is projecting. But the truth is that the 10-year rule of the BJP government is being questioned by the people. People are seeking a report card of ten years\u2019 rule of the BJP government on the ground,\u201d he said.
\nHighlighting the Congress manifesto, Pilot mentioned five major announcements, including a guarantee that women from poor families would receive Rs 1 lakh in their accounts annually.
\n\u201cUnder the rule of the lieutenant governor, outsiders are encroaching lands. Lands that are being cultivated are being snatched from the people and given to outsiders,\u201d he further alleged.
\nHitting out at the BJP leaders over their remarks on assembly elections in Jammu and Kashmir, he said, \u201cI want to tell you that elections in Jammu and Kashmir will be held before September this year. It is not the government saying so but the order of the Supreme Court.\u201d
\nPilot said that in a similar way, the Ram temple was built after the Supreme court\u2019s judgment. \u201cIt was a judgement of the Supreme court that the Ram temple be constructed in Ayodhya. It was an order of the Supreme Court that electoral bonds are illegal. These things have been done on orders of the Supreme court\u201d, he said.
\nThe Udhampur Lok Sabha seat is set to go to polls on April 19. The BJP has fielded Union Minister Jitendra Singh<\/a> from the constituency, seeking to retain the seat for the third time. The Congress has pitted Choudhary Lal Singh against him. The entry of former minister G M Saroori on the ticket of the Democratic Azad Party (DPAP) has made it a three-cornered contest<\/p>\n
