Cutting of trees and consequences on Adani project
Baghel is referring to a disputed project in Tamanar area of Raigad district of Chhattisgarh, where hundreds of trees are being harvested for the power project of Adani Group. The Congress is constantly opposing the project and is describing it as “anti-people and anti-environment”. Today, there was a preparation to raise this issue prominently in the assembly session. But Baghel alleges that the central government resorted to ED to suppress this voice.
What is the purpose of ED’s action?
The ED team arrived at Bhupesh Baghel’s residence in Bhilai on Friday morning. According to sources, the raid has been done under the investigation of the money laundering case related to the alleged liquor scam, but no official statement has been issued by the ED so far. The Congress has accused the central government of misuse of democratic institutions, calling this action “political vengeance”.
BJP clarified, Congress raised questions
At the same time, BJP leaders say that if there is no disturbance, there is no need to fear. At the same time, the Congress is calling it an attempt to weaken the assembly session and divert attention from important issues related to the environment.
Will ED’s entry will create 2024 agenda?
This case is no longer limited to just one raid. Many major issues such as environment, corporate interest, and a sense of political revenge have been exposed by this one tweet. In the coming days, this tweet and ED’s action will bring a huge storm in the politics of Chhattisgarh, only time will tell.
