IMPHAL: BJP National president Nitin Gadkari on Monday asserted that the party will be back to power at the Centre in 2014.
The BJP chief arrived here today and addressed a public rally at Bhagyachandra Open Air Theatre (BOAT).
Addressing the public rally, Mr Gadkari said during the NDA rule in the country there was no case of suicide committed by farmers.
The emphasis on communications throughout the country was started by the NDA led by Atal Behari Vajpayee, he added. Bad governance, corruption in the government, led by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, had broken the record of price rise, he alleged.
”If the BJP comes back to power, it will take up politics of development and unemployment problem will be solved,” he said. The BJP is in charge of nine states in the country and all of them have witnessed growth and development, he claimed.
Allegations like the BJP is anti-Muslim, anti-minorities, are made frequently but what has the Congress done during the long period of its rule in the country? he asked.
It was during the NDA period that a Muslim, APJ Abdul Kalam became the President of the country, he added. For Manipur and rest of the country the BJP will take up new policies related to handicraft, education, handloom, communications, he said. If the BJP comes to power, a CBI probe will be ordered to look into corrupt practices and wrong doers will be jailed, he added. Other BJP central and state leaders attended the function. (UNI)
