Suvendu Adhikari writes to Union Minister Shekhawat on “hijacking credit” for Jal Jeevan Mission by West Bengal govt

Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], April 20 (ANI): Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) chief Suvendu Adhikari on Thursday wrote to Union Minister of Jal Shakti Gajendra Singh Shekhawat in search of path to the West Bengal governmnet to comply with protocols whereas inaugurating Jal Jeevan Mission initiatives within the State and whereas finishing up publicity actions related to the inauguration occasions.

In his letter to Jal Shakrti Minister, Adhikari stated, “It is with great pleasure, I would like to thank you for the timely execution of the Jal Jeevan Mission Projects. The doorstep connectivity of drinking water in rural homes is the biggest gift to the people in this heatwave situation. The people of India are wholeheartedly thanking Prime Minister Narendra Modi across India. However, the scenario is a bit different in West Bengal as the State government is trying their level best to hijack the credit due to PM and the Union Ministry of Jal Shakti.”He stated after the powerful stance taken by the Union Ministry of Jal Shakti, West Bengal authorities and the State administration has reluctantly began to make use of the title Jal Jeevan Mission as a substitute of Jal Swapna.

However, Adhikari stated the West Bengal authorities remains to be, unethically attempting to go it off as their very own venture.

“The image of the Prime Minister is conspicuously absent in publicity and display materials and plaques. But at least 50 per cent of the space of such advertisement or display boards and signages is reserved for the picture of the Chief Minister of West Bengal Mamata Banerjee. I have no problem regarding the display of the image of CM, but it cannot be a substitute for the PM’s image,” he stated.

“So it is my earnest request to you, that kindly instruct the West Bengal government to follow the protocols regarding the publicity and the inaugural events, which the State government and the District Administration must adhere to. The Union Ministry of Jal Shakti should monitor the adherence of such protocols. The printing and display of the Prime Minister’s image in the publicity materials, advertisements, banners and plaques is a must and should be non-negotiable,” added Adhikari. (ANI)
