ARA--------------------------Following the Mishrauli incident, political activity has intensified in the Shahpur assembly constituency. BJP candidate Rakesh Ojha has launched a scathing attack on the sitting MLA over the Mishrauli incident. Ojha has accused the MLA of making baseless statements out of fear of defeat and spreading caste-based frenzy in the area.

Rakesh Ojha categorically rejected allegations of BJP supporters' involvement in the Mishrauli incident, asking, "Was anyone from our party fighting there with a flag? If someone fights anywhere, will they be from our party?" He accused the MLA of unnecessarily targeting the BJP due to his declining popularity among the public and the anger stemming from the protests taking place everywhere. Ojha sarcastically remarked that wherever the MLA is welcomed, his workers are present, but wherever there is opposition, he sees only BJP workers. Rakesh Ojha stated that the individuals accused in the Mishrauli incident were officials of another party. However, he also clarified that violence has no place in democracy.

Ojha, calling the MLA's actions "mental bankruptcy," said that the MLA is heading towards complete mental bankruptcy and, in this state of panic, is making absurd statements. Sometimes he claims that a particular person, community, or village is not his voter.

Rakesh Ojha accused the MLA of creating caste divisions in the area, saying that while all classes and communities are united, the MLA is working to create divisions. Citing the example of Pawan Singh's assistance to erosion victims, he said that people from every caste, class, and community love Pawan Singh. He alleged that the MLA is abandoning his 10 years of work and is attempting to spread caste violence and caste frenzy. He also threatened to file a complaint with the Election Commission of India.

Ojha asserted that the people of Shahpur region want development this time and will vote in the name of development. He called for voting for the BJP. He also countered the MLA's statement that "original Kshatriyas" vote for him. Ojha questioned whether those Kshatriyas who vote for the NDA are "fake"? He again accused the MLA of being mentally bankrupt, saying that when a person reaches this state, there's no guarantee of what they will say. He asked, "Will the MLA provide a certificate as to who is a real Kshatriya, who is a real Brahmin, and who is a real Dalit?"

Rakesh Ojha said that the honorable MLA is completely distraught after seeing his defeat. He has no answer to what he did in 10 years. He alleged that the MLA has yet to present his 10-year report card, even though only two days are left for the elections. He said that the MLA is completely misleading the public and diverting them from the core issue by spreading the poison of casteism.

However, Ojha expressed happiness that the people of the area are alert and aware. He said that the public will not be misled or provoked by the MLA. The public has resolved that this time the area will see development and the BJP's lotus will bloom in Shahpur. Ojha said that the MLA should provide data on his work. Despite being an MLA for 10 years, he only remembers Visheshwar Ojha, which clearly shows that he has failed on the public forum.
