Congress and Jharkhand chief minister Babulal Marandi-led Jharkhand Vikas Morcha (Prajatantrik) (JVM) were trying to confuse people to destabilize Jharkhand politically, BJP state president Dineshanand Goswami said here on Monday.
The JVM and Congress had the opportunity to form government in 2010 after the Sibu Soren-headed coalition ministry was reduced to minority following withdrawal of support by BJP, but they did not come forward, Mr Goswami said.
Now when the present government under Munda was carrying out developmental work, the JVM-Congress ganged up again to destabilize the Munda government, he said.
Congress and JVM had contested the last Assembly election in alliance but separated following differences.
He was campaigning in support of the ruling NDA candidate and chief minister Arjun Munda for the assembly by-poll in Kharswan on February, 10.
Describing Munda as a 'symbol of development' in the state, Mr Goswami said the present coalition government was committed to provide a development-oriented governance and effectively initiated steps in this regard.
He also lambasting the Centre for overlooking the interest of Jharkhand.
