“When I became the CM (in 2005), I had decided that either I will stay in MP or the dacoits will stay in the ravines of Chambal. Not even a single dacoit is left in the state now. Now it’s the time for the bulldozer to be in action against all goons and anti-social elements who are targeting the poor, helpless and women. The bulldozer has already been in action against such elements in Raisen, Seoni, Shahdol, Sheopur and Jaora, the bulldozing of houses of goons and anti-socials will continue. I’ll ensure that the existence of goons and criminals end in MP,” declared Chouhan on Tuesday.

Lashing out on the opposition Congress and its state president Kamal Nath over politicising the latest conflict between Muslims and tribals in Khamaria (Raisen), “we all are sad over your irreparable loss, but some others are playing politics over the death of poor by just tweeting over the issue. Let them continue tweeting as they are never among the people on the ground. I’m repeating again, all goons and anti-socials hear it clearly, this is not the Congress or Kamal Nath regime. It’s my government, Mama’s bulldozer will not stop, till the goons and anti-social elements who trouble the poor and helpless aren’t buried.”

He additionally directed the native police power and forest division workers to hold out home to deal with searches of all these accused within the March 18 night incident which led to younger tribal Raju Adivasi’s killing.
While handing over a Rs 5 lakh cheque as compensation to Raju’s widow, the CM introduced that two homes (one for Raju’s father and one other for his brother) can be constructed for which cash has already been launched. “Also, the little ones (son and daughter) of Raju will get Rs 2,000 monthly till they become majors,” the CM introduced.

Importantly, every of the 38 individuals who have been harm within the conflict (over a small argument on March 18 night) will get Rs 50,000 from the state authorities as aid, whereas three critically injured tribals have been sanctioned Rs 2 lakh every.

The opposition Congress, in the meantime, slammed the transfer, accusing the BJP authorities of indulging in theatrics to keep away from accountability. Congress state spokesperson KK Mishra mentioned, “BJP is ruling for the past 15 years, still they are misleading people in the name of bulldozers. The government should do something to prevent these heinous crimes that are being committed against women and children every day. I feel Mama is now treading the path of Yogi (Adityanath) to save himself.”
