Jan Aashirwad Yatra left Opposition disturbed, nervous: Nadda

People have rejected the “negative political agenda” of Opposition parties and have stood strongly with the politics of development and growth, says BJP president J.P. Nadda

The highly successful Jan Aashirwad Yatra, a public outreach by 39 new Union Ministers, has left the Opposition “disturbed and nervous”, BJP president J.P. Nadda said on September 4 and accused it of trying to hinder the programme. People continue to show “unflinching support and trust” in the Modi government, he said in a statement.”All ploys and disturbances have failed to shake the strong support and trust that the people have showered on the Narendra Modi government,” Mr. Nadda said, hitting out at the Maharashtra government for targeting Union Minister Narayan Rane. Mr. Rane was arrested by the Maharashtra police for his comments against Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray while on the Yatra.“It is a direct attack on our democratic system but people’s support forced all narrow-minded opposition parties and our political adversaries to retreat,” Mr. Nadda said. “The highly successful ‘Jan Aashirwad Yatras‘ across the country has left the Opposition parties disturbed and nervous, and they unsuccessfully tried to disturb and create hindrances in our Yatra and programmes.” The BJP president added that people have rejected the “negative political agenda” of Opposition parties and have stood strongly with the politics of development and growth.
