BJP using pressure tactics on MoI issue: BBSM

BICHOLIM: Bharatiya Bhasha Suraksha Manch (BBSM), Mayem unit, has accused the BJP of using pressure tactics and asking people not to support the group on the medium-of-instruction issue.

Addressing a press conference on Monday, BBSM Mayem chief Shrikrishna Dhond said that the BJP was afraid after knowing about the support that BBSM was getting and added, “The BJP is now misguiding and telling the people that the pension that the senior citizens are getting will be stopped if they support BBSM.”
Dhond also informed that BBSM would hold a public meeting in Mayem on May 21, were senior leaders would be present.
“We are expecting a crowd of about 5,000 people for the meeting as we have sensitised the public in Mayem, and all have extended their support on the issue,” said Dheeraj Sawant of BBSM.
