BJP Claims Opposition’s Protest Aims to Create Chaos
Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan on Monday accused Congress and other opposition parties of staging protests over Bihar’s voter roll revision as a “well thought out strategy to create anarchy and instability in the country.” He called their “vote theft” allegations against the BJP and the Election Commission baseless and politically motivated.
Protesters Called Out
Pradhan criticized opposition leaders, especially Rahul Gandhi, stating they are speaking “the language of big forces who want to destroy democracy.” He urged them to raise their concerns within Parliament instead of disrupting public trust through street protests.
Political Tensions Ahead of Elections
These remarks follow a large INDIA bloc protest march in New Delhi questioning the integrity of electoral lists in Bihar. The BJP’s strong response underscores the growing political tension as the country gears up for key upcoming elections.
