Bhubaneswar: A delegation of Biju Janata Dal (BJD) today moved the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) office accusing the Odisha BJP leaders of harassing and maligning the Nari Shakti (women power) and women leadership in the Dhamnagar by-poll campaigning.
“It has become a common practice of the Odisha BJP that when elections come, they realize that they are losing, then they keep running multiple times in a day to the Chief Electoral Officer and Election Commission to mask their fear of upcoming defeat. In the Dhamnagar by-poll now, we are also seeing the same pattern emerging. Further, the Odisha BJP continues to harass, threaten and malign the Nari Shakti (women power) and women leadership of Odisha in this Dhamnagar by-poll campaigning”, the BJD alleged.
On Thursday, the BJD had intimated the Chief Election Commissioner and Election Commission of India about defamation and maligning of the image of Women Self Help Groups and their members by the Odisha BJP.
The Odisha BJP has been circulating fake videos purportedly about these SHG women members that they have a political role in Dhamnagar by-poll, especially with a masked lady stating so in a video. This blatant maligning of the Women SHG members has pained 4.5 crore Odias across Odisha and not only in Dhamnagar, the BJD said while demanding strong action against the Odisha BJP leaders.
