Although BJP and Congress are two sides of same coin, BJP is far more communal. Since BJP came to power, there is an atmosphere of hatred, and there is a takeover of the democratic institutions.
We are fighting the BJP and the Congress at both the state and national levels. People know them to be two sides of the same coin. However, our primary goal is to defeat the BJP as it is led by the RSS, and they exhibit fascist tendencies.
Unlike the Congress or the BJP leaders, who are away from people, I am not. I mix with people, and I know how they feel. That gives me an edge over the Congress and the BJP.
The BJP has been trampling over democratic and constitutional principles since it came to power at the Centre in 2014.
Compared to Congress, BJP is spending huge money in the elections. BJP keeps claiming that it is not corrupt. Then where is it getting such huge monies from?
BJP is doing "gathbandhan". Congress is doing "brashtbandhan" and the criminals are doing "lathbandhan". Our politics is about coalitions. Every coalition where the BJP is part of as leaders, has been successful.
We are fighting the communal BJP on the one hand and the corrupt Congress on the other.
Secularism for the Congress is merely a slogan while for the BJP it is an article of faith. Secularism is about votebank politics for the Congress, while it is about 'India first' for the BJP.
Just because I have joined the BJP does not mean that I am an active BJP member.
How can BJP be anti-Bangla when BJP founder Syama Prasad Mookerjee himself was a Bengali?
I am finding out how parties with different ideologies forged alliances with the BJP. I want to question BJP on ideology - how they came together with Nitish Kumar, Paswan, PDP and Naidu.
I have an ideological umbilical cord with the BJP... we are three-generation party supporters... my grandfather was a swayamsevak, my mother, a BJP booth activist.
BJP are opposed to a Muslim boy marrying a Hindu girl. Then how did BJP have an alliance with Mehbooba Mufti or Nitish Kumar or Chandrababu Naidu?
When people speak of BJP being an 'election machine,' it is actually development and progress that is BJP's electoral machine.
BJP is a political party with a difference that aims at good governance. This is proved by the fact that three of the five Chief Ministers according to a recent NDTV survey/poll are from BJP-ruled states.
These days, those who criticize the Union government are being labelled as anti-BJP and those praise it as BJP supporters. Isn't there any middle path?
For the poor, for those who want to serve, the only place left for such people is BJP. When someone joins the BJP family, it is not only about membership, we strengthen relationships.
