Bhopal: Madhya Pradesh BJP will put up
hoardings along national highways in the state to underline
their bad condition and highlight that it is the Centre which
is responsible for maintaining them.
BJP sources said here today that a decision to this
effect was taken last night at a meeting of the state BJP
Coordination Committee.
Sources said that through the hoardings, the state
government wants to tell people that it has nothing to do with
the bad condition of national highways that pass through the
state, as the Centre is responsible for their upkeep.
Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan,
State BJP President Prabhat Jha were present in the meeting.
Chouhan will go to Delhi on August 26 to meet concerned
Union Ministers to highlight the issue.
