BJP Chief JP Nadda Slams Congress For Engaging In Polarizing Politics, Says Congress Divided People

National president of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), JP Nadda, criticized the Congress for engaging in polarizing politics while conducting a polling campaign in Sidhi, Madhya Pradesh, on Friday.

While addressing a public gathering, Nadda said,”…But overall, one thing came to light which you should also keep in mind. Earlier, politics was done by dividing people. The Congress Party divided brother against brother for a long time, whether someone is from this bank of the river or the opposite bank of the river, whether you are forward or backward, whether you are from our caste or from any other caste, and did vote bank politics. Following that, they took everyone’s vote and then formed the government of one caste, section or community. It was not an inclusive government.”

Nadda claimed that under Prime Minister Narendra Modi, people are no longer misinformed or divided based on their caste or class and politics has a new meaning.

“But PM Modi changed the definition of Indian politics in the last 10 years. Now that the definition has changed, politics will not work through a vote bank, by misleading people. Now there will be no politics by talking on the basis of castes and classes,” the BJP president said.

According to Nadda, the BJP feels that the party’s future would be determined by how well it performed in the past while it was in power.

“Now if there is politics, it will be the politics of development and the politics of report card. You have to state what work you have done and based on your work, people will determine your future,” Nadda said.

In the Madhya Pradesh Sidhi Lok Sabha seat, the BJP has selected Rajesh Mishra to challenge Congress candidate Kamaleshwar Patel.

The first four phases of the seven-phase Lok Sabha elections for Madhya Pradesh’s 29 seats are set for April 19, April 26, May 7, and May 13.

In the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the BJP won 28 seats in Madhya Pradesh while the Congress won one.
