NEW DELHI: The upcoming Nagland assembly election has, wittingly or unwittingly, end up being the hotbed of war between the BJP and the Congress for the 2024 Lok Sabha election.
During marketing in the northeastern state, while the BJP claimed decimation of the Congress, the latter has actually forecasted that an alliance government led by it would win the 2024 Lok Sabha election and form government at the Centre.Nagaland and Meghalaya will vote on February 27.
Senior BJP leader and Union home minister Amit Shah attended to election rallies in Nagaland on February 20 and February 21.
Congress president and leader of opposition in the Rajya Sabha Mallikarjun Kharge too held an election rally in the state on February 21.
Amit Shah in NagalandSpeaking at an election conference in Mon Town, Nagaland on February 20, Shah said the Congress would not show up after the 2024 election.
He was reacting to the bad remarks made by Congress spokesperson Pawan Khera about Prime Minister Narendra Modi.While speaking to media individuals on February 20, Khera buffooned the PM stating, Why the federal government is fleing from discussion (on forming a JPC on Gautam Adani-Hindenburg problem) in Parliament ...
why its frightened of constituting a JPC when previous PMs Narasimha Rao, Atal Bihari Vajpayee could form a JPC ...
so Narendra Gautamdas sorry Narendra Damodardas Modi ko kya problem hai ...
naam bhale hi Damodardas hai par kaam Gautamdas hai ...
Modi writes his complete name as Narendra Damodardas Modi, where the middle name, Damodardas, means his dads name.
It is a typical custom in several parts of the nation consisting of Gujarat, where Modi comes from, to utilize fathers name as the middle name.Khera replaced Damodar with Gautam (the first name of business tycoon Adani) and presumably mocked the PM saying the name is Damodardas however the deeds are of Gautamdas.Without calling Khera or what exactly he commented, the minister said: The kind of language the Congress spokesperson has used (for PM) and the sort of reaction it has drawn from individuals from across the nation ...
you will see Rahul Gandhi that Congress will not show up even through telescope after the polls in 2024.
Individuals will respond through the ballot box.
Shah said the PM is revered throughout the world for having brought joy to the lives of the nations 80 crore poor.
For such a precious PM of ours, the kind of language which has actually been used is something I strongly condemn ...
It is a matter of concern for me and everybody concerned that the standard of Congress functionaries is falling by the day since Rahul Gandhi became the celebration leader, he said.He stated, We can not use that type of words for them but we can certainly vote against such behaviour.
So I request you all to elect the NDA alliance as a demonstration to this behaviour.
Mallikarjun Kharge in NagalandA day after Shah struck back to Kheras remarks, the Congress president reached the state for campaigning.
Speaking in a rally at Diphupar Village Public Ground, he assaulted Modi.Kharge stated, You understand Modi has actually said this numerous times that I am the only male who can deal with the nation and no other people can touch me.
That happily he says.
No democratic guy says like this.
You remain in a democracy.
You need to keep in mind.
You are not an autocrat.
You are not a dictator.
You are elected by individuals and individuals will teach you (a) lesson in 2024.
The leader of opposition in the Rajya Sabha spoke about the opposition unity and how the Congress would lead the opposition alliance.
(The) alliance government will come in (at the) Centre.
Congress will lead.
We are talking with other celebrations due to the fact that otherwise the democracy and constitution will go.
With every celebration now and then we are calling, we are talking, we are sharing our views (on) how to win 2024, he said.Kharge restated that the BJP would lose and the Congress-led opposition alliance would win a bulk.
Therefore, the BJP will not get (a) majority.
Some people state they will not get (the) majority.
All other celebrations together, naturally Congress will lead, we will get the bulk.
We will follow the Constitution.
We will follow democracy.
Let 100 Modis and Shahs come.
This is India.
Our Constitution is really strong, he included.
