BJP to turn opposition states' apathy to central plans into poll ammo

BJP plans to make opposition parties' hesitancy in implementing social welfare schemes a major issue in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls. They argue that people in opposition-governed states are being denied benefits for political reasons. Former Chhattisgarh CM Bhupesh Baghel's decision not to implement the PM Awas Yojna is seen as a key reason for Congress's defeat. PM Narendra Modi has called on opposition parties to change their approach and stop denying people benefits of central welfare schemes.
