The National Spokesperson of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Sudhanshu Trivedi, expressed concern on Saturday over the current political scenario in Bihar and the tense situation inside the INDIA bloc, citing the departure of key partners.
“When Rahul Gandhi did his first (Bharat Jodo) yatra, Congress lost in three states. Now, he is conducting his yatra from east to west. Their INDI alliance partners, TMC in West Bengal and AAP in Punjab, said that they would contest the election alone. Earlier, the BSP also announced the same in Uttar Pradesh. So I believe that the current situation within the INDI alliance could be termed “Dekhi zamane ki yari bichhade sabhi bari-bari,” Sudhanshu Trivedi, National Spokesperson, said.
Trivedi emphasized the need for a positive political approach and presented two distinct alternatives.
“There is no future for alliances built on negativity. There are two clear alternatives in front of the people of India: the leadership of Narendra Modi ji or the BJP and NDA alliance, which is the government in Jhansi, Sudhanshu Trivedi said.
