Top Themes of Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan’s Campaign Speech at an Election Rally: “Today, because of Bangladeshi ‘infiltrators,’ you are in grave danger. The statistics show the Adivasi population has fallen. A politician here is involved in providing gas cylinders to ‘infiltrators’ for 450 rupees. Grave danger lies ahead. They (Opposition Parties) get infiltrators into India and get them proper documents, so they can be in the voter lists. Our women are targeted and then killed.”
“They marry our daughters and then grab their land. They make their wives run panchayat elections and then take over the whole panchayat. You are in grave danger. Like vultures, they are feasting on us.”
“We promise to identify these infiltrators and throw them out.”
