Unexpected: Kharge, Rahul on Maha poll results
The BJP-Shiv Sena-Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) Mahayuti alliance retained power in Maharashtra by sweeping the Assembly elections.
The BJP-Shiv Sena-Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) Mahayuti alliance retained power in Maharashtra by sweeping the Assembly elections.
Congress on Friday said BJP national president JP Nadda’s letter to party chief Mallikarjun Kharge on Manipur situation was full of "falsehoods".
He referred to the Mahayuti government as a "50 khoke (cash boxes in Marathi), everything's okay" government.
The Congress leader accused the BJP of deliberately allowing the state to burn, claiming that at least 17 people had lost their lives since November 7.
Promises matter in elections because voters lack rationality. As election history shows, freebies do get votes. Hitherto, it was a time tested method of electoral success for a desperate opposition.
The Congress chief said that his party's priority in the next five years will be to restore the healthy, fearless and trustworthy atmosphere for businesses if elected to power.
He urged people to choose democracy, so that "the institutions can return to their independent form and are not pressed under the thumb of brute power".
Kharge said that he was deeply pained by the cowardly terror attack on IAF convoy in Poonch.
Kharge said the "desperation and worry" is leading the PM to use a language that doesn't suit the high office he held.
Instead of standing with everyone, he adopted the policies that have led to the erosion of inclusivity, alleged the Congress president while addressing an election rally in Chhattisgarh.
