| Modi Govt's works to be written in golden letters, May God give good sense to Rahul: Nadda | | |  AGENCIES
NEW DELHI, June 9: The 11 years of Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led government will be written in golden letters for the positive changes it has effected, BJP president J P Nadda asserted on Monday while slamming Rahul Gandhi as an "irresponsible" opposition leader and accusing him of raising "baseless" questions.
Addressing a press conference to mark the government's 11th anniversary, he said Modi made the government accountable and responsive while confronting challenges head-on, putting an end to "scams, divisive politics, appeasement and overall negativism" which marked the 10 years of the Congress-led UPA rule.
"May God give him good sense," Nadda said of Gandhi when asked about the Congress leader's criticism of the government's foreign policy and questions about the likely losses of fighter aircraft India might have suffered in military conflict with Pakistan during Operation Sindoor.
The BJP chief said, "It is difficult to understand his (Gandhi's) aim. He attends the all-party meeting and says he stands with the country. He goes outside and raises questions that are baseless. I can only say that he is playing the role of an irresponsible opposition." Nadda expressed confidence that the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government will complete its tenure and quipped that it will last its next full term as well. He was asked about opposition leaders making dire predictions about its stability after the BJP, the principal NDA constituent, lost majority in the 2024 polls.
"Our government is strong. It will last for five years in this term and the next too," he said.
The government led by Modi has laid the foundation of a 'Viksit Bharat', and India is successfully on its way to achieving its goals with people's participation, he said.
Dismissing Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh's swipe at Modi for not addressing a press conference on the government's anniversary, Nadda wondered what is wrong when the president of the main party in power has spoken to the media.
Hitting back at Ramesh, he said that the prime minister converses more with people than the Congress general secretary would have spoken to anyone in his life.
Nadda likened Gandhi, the lead opposition voice in questioning the Election Commission and fairness of Maharashtra assembly polls, and his allies to a sore loser in a cricket match who blames the umpire for the loss while claiming credit in case of a win. |
