'Instead Of Report Card, BJP Should Show Its Rate Card': Congress Steps Up '50% Commission' Campaign In MP
The Congress alleged that rampant corruption was prevailing in the state after Amit Shah released a report card of BJP rule in MP.
Congress leader and former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Kamal Nath on Tuesday intensified the party’s “50 per cent commission” campaign against Bharatiya Janata Party ahead of Assembly polls in the state. Responding to Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s demand to present a report card of Congress’s 53 years of ruling Madhya Pradesh, Kamal Nath said that the saffron party should release a “rate card”. The Congress alleged that rampant corruption was prevailing in the state after Shah released a report card of BJP rule in MP.
"What are they asking for a report from us? They should give a report on the 18 years. They should release a rate card on how much money to be taken on what things instead of a report card,” said Kamal Nath while speaking to reporters in MP’s Sagar district.
On Friday, Shah released the report card of Bharatiya Janata Party’s rule in Madhya Pradesh from 2003 to 2023 and hailed it for removing the ‘BIMARU’ tag, while the Congress claimed that the state was now a “failed” one.

Addressing a press conference on Sunday, Congress MP Vivek Tankha said that the state failed under the rule of the saffron party and claimed that Shah had taken over the poll campaign for the ruling party sidelining Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan.
"Shah presented the report card and has shown he doesn't have confidence in Chouhan, who is the state's CM for 18 years. The BJP government held several investors' summits and signed MoUs with companies. If these would have materialised, cities here would have become the IT hubs like Bengaluru and Hyderabad," Tankha claimed.
He also said that the ruling BJP government has failed on all the fronts in the state including health, education, and employment generation.
