The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Thursday launched a scathing attack on the opposition parties over their allegation that the Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) used during the Municipal Corporation polls were tampered with and said it is an insult of mandate of people of Delhi. Union Minister Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi told ANI, “The opposition parties should understand that they are not just banging their head on EVMs but are insulting the people’s mandate.”
Naqvi further asserted that the people of Delhi have given a decisive mandate against this politics of ego, anarchy and misconduct.
“The opposition parties’ slogan is to stop Modi-led-BJP government. But people want to know about their policies. They should know on what things they should be one & together,” he added.
Bihar’s ruling Grand Alliance partners, Janata Dal (United) and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) yesterday reiterated their call for opposition unity to counter the BJP following its victory in the Delhi municipal elections. “If we (opposition) do not unite against the BJP, we will get similar results in coming polls,” said RJD chief Lalu Prasad.
