"I Shouldn't Say...": New Chhattisgarh Chief Minister's Dig At Congress

Tribals are well aware that under the BJP rule, their development, well-being, and respect are achievable, he said.

Chhattisgarh Chief Minister-designate Vishnu Deo Sai on Sunday accused the Congress of treating tribals as a vote bank and said his party BJP takes care of their welfare.

Mr Sai (59), a prominent tribal face in the state, was on Sunday elected as the legislative party leader during a meeting of 54 newly elected BJP lawmakers here.

The Chief Minister-designate in the evening reached the state guest house 'Pahuna' where he met party workers, who were eagerly waiting there after the announcement of his election to the top post.
