As Chhattisgarh Votes, Bhupesh Baghel's Sofa Pic, Debate Jab At Amit Shah
NDTV
Last month's NDTV-Lokniti opinion poll said 79 per cent are at least 'somewhat satisfied' with Bhupesh Baghel's performance, and 39 per cent want him to return as Chief Minister.
Chhattisgarh woke Tuesday morning to the first phase of the 2023 Assembly election and a tongue-in-cheek X post by Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel - under fire from the BJP over corruption allegations linked to the Mahadev betting app row - accepting Amit Shah's invitation to a debate on his government's achievements, inviting the Union Home Minister to name the date, time and place. गृहमंत्री श्री अमित शाह जी!जिस पंडरिया विधानसभा में आप मुझे काम पर बहस करने की चुनौती देकर गए थे, उसी पंडरिया विधानसभा में जाकर मैंने आपकी चुनौती को स्वीकार किया है।आपने तो अभी तक मंच, तारीख, समय नहीं बताया है लेकिन जनता ने मंच तैयार कर लिया है।आप तारीख और समय बता दीजिए.. pic.twitter.com/NfuFT7xufN
"Home Minister Shri Amit Shah! I have accepted your challenge by going to the same Pandaria Assembly (seat) where you had challenged me to debate on the work (done by my government). You have not yet told the stage, date and time... but the public has prepared the stage," Mr Baghel said.
"Please tell me the date and time..." the Congress leader wrote.
