New Delhi, The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) launched a blistering attack at the Opposition on Monday, claiming that the Congress and other parties of the INDIA bloc want to spread anarchy and chaos in the country with an intent to turn the \u2018group of infiltrators\u2019 into their vote bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
BJP leader Sambit Patra, in a presser at the party headquarters, slammed the opposition parties for refusing to buy the Election Commission\u2019s reasoning over the Bihar Special Intensive Revision (SIR) controversy and said that their main purpose is to protect, give shelter to the infiltrators and then develop them as their vote bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He, however, warned in the same breath that the nation\u2019s resources are for its citizens, and infiltrators can never be given the tag of voter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said that the Supreme Court has clearly stated that the EC, being a constitutional body, is entitled to make and purify voter rolls, and any objection to it is unacceptable and untenable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cCongress and Opposition parties want to create a chaotic situation and pandemonium on the streets, much like what happened in neighbouring nations, including Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and others and then make political dividends from it. But, they forget that India is a highly enriched civilisation, where people understand the difference between anarchists and upright individuals,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Taunting the Voter Adhikar Yatra in Bihar, led by Rahul Gandhi and Tejashwi Yadav, he said that they have already done \u2018jail yatra\u2019 and \u2018bail yatra\u2019, and this march is another attempt to befool the voters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTwo families have themselves committed fraud, but look at their audacity, they are attacking constitutional bodies and accusing them of misdeeds,\u201d Patra said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Responding to the INDIA bloc\u2019s presser, comprising leaders from Congress, SP, TMC, DMK and other parties, held in the capital on Monday, Patra said that they are the same people who question and sully every institution of the country and when shown the mirror, they start crying foul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThey consider the Prime Minister\u2019s chair as their own right and the moment they lose elections, they start pointing fingers at the poll body,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He also took strong exception to the Opposition\u2019s presser where one of the leaders called for the dissolution of the Lok Sabha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Calling out its duplicity, he said that EC has repeatedly asked them to come forward and register their complaints with it, but they never put their grievances on record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He further said that the EC, in a press conference, made a detailed presentation about the SIR, addressed all misgivings regarding technical issues, but those who don\u2019t want to understand will never agree to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said that those attacking the poll panel want to create anarchy and chaos in the country, so that they could derive political gains from it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThey mock every constitutional body in the country. When the Ram Mandir verdict was announced, they pointed fingers at the Supreme Court judgment and went to the extent of labelling it as biased. They are the same people who questioned the Indian Army\u2019s valour and demanded proof of surgical strikes,\u201d the Lok Sabha MP pointed out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The BJP lawmaker also lashed out at the Congress and Opposition parties for disrupting the House proceedings and obstructing it from conducting a special discussion on Subhanshu Shukla\u2019s space mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Taunting the Opposition, he informed the press about Union Minister Jitendra Singh\u2019s sharp response to sloganeering and placard-waving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When Opposition members tried to throw placards to interrupt his introductory remarks on Subhanshu Shukla, the Union Minister wittingly said, \u201cI am in space and your disruptive tactics won\u2019t work here.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
