BJP chief JP Nadda criticized the Congress for opposing the deployment of senior officers to districts to showcase the government s achievements. Nadda said that public service delivery is the duty of the government and questioned the Congress opposition to it. Congress spokesperson Pawan Khera had shared an order regarding the deployment of officers as "rath prabhari" in each district. The BJP s IT department head, Amit Malviya, defended the move, stating that bureaucrats are duty-bound to assess the impact of government programs and schemes. Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge objected to the government order, calling it the politicization of the bureaucracy.
The Congress president s remarks came a day after Prime Minister Narendra Modi slammed the Ashok Gehlot government in Rajasthan over recruitment exam paper leaks, corruption and law and order, saying it cared only for its "vote bank" and not the people of Rajasthan. Hitting back at Kharge, BJP IT department head Amit Malviya wrote on X, "His claim about budget cuts for MGNREGA in 2023-24 is false."
