On being asked on the issue of resource mobilization and financial management in debt-ridden state, he said they have planned everything for it and added that the state government does not have much debt than the Union Government.

"We have three important decisions and planned for debt, One is financial management, another is to stop the corruption and third one is to generate the resources. To run the economy, there is need to revolve the cycle. What BJP is doing today that is; they are taking money from the common people, from the farmers and from the labour class and are giving it to big industrialist and they are competing to become the number 1 country in the world," said Baghel.
