“Fake votes are Congress’s culture, not BJP’s” – Energy Minister Anil Vij
“Congress thrives on lies and confusion, but people will no longer be misled” – Anil Vij
“Kharge himself admitted that Bihar once faced jungle raj; now Tejashwi should focus on serving his ailing father” – Vij
Anil Vij’s Counterattack – “Congress’s comments on the Prime Minister reflect its frustration”
Chandigarh, November 9: Haryana’s Energy, Transport, and Labour Minister Sh. Anil Vij strongly refuted the allegations made by Congress leaders against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), calling them baseless, misleading, and inflammatory. He said that “Congress’s habit is to spread lies and confusion, whereas the BJP is a party that stands firmly on the trust of the people.”

“Fake votes are Congress’s culture, not BJP’s” – Vij
Reacting to the statement of Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi, Sh. Vij said that“This is Congress’s culture, not BJP’s. Congress leaders are the ones who create fake votes — and we have caught them several times.” He added that “Rahul Gandhi tells half-truths. He should tell the full story — whose favor did those fake votes go to? Who benefitted from them?” Citing an example, Sh. Vij said that “In Ambala’s Saha constituency, 223 fake votes were found, and both the MLA and MP from there are Congress members. This clearly shows that Congress tries to manipulate elections through fraud.”
“Kharge himself admitted that Bihar once faced jungle raj” – Vij
Responding to Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge’s remarks blaming the NDA government for Bihar’s law and order situation, Sh.Vij said that “When we buy clothes, we look at the company’s old record. Kharge ji has himself accepted that there was jungle raj and gun raj in Bihar 20 years ago.” Sh.Vij further added that “Now that Lalu Prasad Yadav’s son Tejashwi Yadav is being lost the election, he should focus on serving his father, whose health is not well.”
“Prime Minister’s words were a reference to history” – Vij
Reacting to Priyanka Gandhi’s criticism of the Prime Minister’s remarks, Sh.Vij said that “The Prime Minister referred to historical facts. When he used the words ‘katte’ (guns) and ‘BrahMos’, it was in the context of contrasting India’s strength with the era of fear. What is recorded in history will naturally be mentioned — after all, they ruled through the power of guns.”
“Comments against the Election Commission are meaningless” – Vij
Responding to Congress MP Deepender Singh Hooda’s claim that Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar is a BJP ‘panna pramukh’ (booth worker), Vij dismissed it as “absurd and baseless.” He said that “The Election Commission’s job is to prepare voter lists and maintain electoral rolls. Congress is deliberately trying to malign institutions.”

Two Ambala Youth Deported from Russia After Being Trapped by Agents — Energy Minister Anil Vij directs Strict Police Action
Energy Minister Anil Vij redresses Public Grievances, Directs Officials for Immediate Action
Chandigarh, November 9: Haryana’s Energy, Transport and Labour Minister Sh. Anil Vij has directed the police to take strict action against two agents who allegedly sent two youths from Ambala Cantt’s Defence Colony to Russia through illegal means.
Sh.Vij was redressing the grievances at his residence in Ambala Cantt., where he redressed the grievances of the people from his constituency.
A complainant from Defence Colony stated that two agents from Panjokhra Sahib and Dayalbagh lured him with a promise to send him to Georgia and demanded Rs. 5 lakh. The complainant paid the amount, but instead of sending him to Georgia, the agents first sent him to Mecca. Later, they illegally sent him to Russia on a tourist visa, where he was arrested by local authorities. He was imprisoned for nearly two months before being deported back to India. He alleged that the agents cheated him of around Rs.8.5 lakh.
Similarly, another youth also accused the same agents of illegal trafficking and fraud. He said that after reaching Russia, he did not receive the promised work permit. When he contacted the agents, they threatened him, and soon after, Russian police detained and deported him back to India. He claimed to have been cheated of approximately Rs. 9 lakh.
Taking serious note of both incidents, Minister Anil Vij instructed the police to start an immediate investigation and take stringent action against the culprits.
Minister Directs Action on Other Complaints
During the grievance hearing, several other complaints were also presented before the Minister. A resident of Palam Vihar, Ambala Cantt complained that the Mahesh Nagar Police had failed to take proper action in a house theft case. A woman from near BD Flour Mill stated that after her husband went missing, her in-laws were trying to evict her from the house. Similarly, the wife of a municipal employee complained about not receiving her EPF funds. In all these, Energy Minister Anil Vij directed the concerned departments and officers to take immediate and effective action.
