Accusing the BJP, Congress and DSS candidates of using money and muscle power to influence the voters, Harsh Dev said that several crores of rupees were being spent by them in their election campaign with none to take cognizance. The said parties were brazenly spending their ill gotten wealth without any regard for election laws in the shape of publicity materials, posters, banners, freebies, choppers and thousands of vehicles deployed by them to lure the voters. They are the parties who had nothing to offer to the people while in power except enriching their own coffers, said Singh. While appealing the people to wisely distinguish between the genuine representatives and pseudo champions of the public. He said that Panthers alone had been representing the cause of deprived class in true spirit and taking on the mighty and powerful for ensuring them justice.
