Bihar results defeat of divisive agenda of BJP, RSS, says Rahul Gandhi

November 8, 2015

New Delhi, Nov 8: Terming the Bihar poll outcome as a defeat of "divisive agenda of BJP and RSS", Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi today said it is time for Prime Minister Narendra Modi to tone down his "arrogance" or people will "throw him out".

rahulThe Congress leader also asked Modi to stop his frequent foreign tours and instead go to meet farmers, labourers and youth whom he promised jobs.

Gandhi said the grand alliance's triumph was "a victory of unity over divisiveness, humility over arrogance and love over hate".

"The truth is this victory is not against NDA but against the ideology of BJP, RSS and Modi. This is a message against putting Hindus against Muslims and making them fight to win elections.

"His vehicle is not starting. He should start it and press the accelerator. If you do not do it, people of India will open the door and throw you out as they have done in Bihar," he said of Modi, adding as a Prime Minister it does not behove his stature to "pit one community against the other".

"Prime Minister Narendra Modi has become arrogant. He should work on toning it down as it will benefit him and the country.

"Modi should stop campaigning and start working. He should also stop foreign tours and instead go and meet farmers, labourers and youth whom he promised jobs," he told reporters.

The Congress vice president said this message is echoing in the entire country and it was time for Modi to pay heed.

New Delhi, Feb 11: Delhi BJP chief Manoj Tiwari on Tuesday said the party will review why it failed to meet its own expectations in the Assembly polls and saw a moral victory in the fact that the party's vote share has increased since 2015.

"Delhi must have given mandate after careful thinking. Our vote percentage has increased from 32 per cent to around 38 per cent. Delhi did not reject us and the increase (in vote share) is a good sign for us," he told reporters.

He said the BJP hopes that there would be less blame game and more work in the national capital and congratulated Arvind Kejriwal on his party's victory in the polls.

After winning the Patparganj seat, AAP senior leader Manish Sisodia accused the BJP of indulging in the politics of hate.

"We indulge in politics of development not politics of hate. We're against the roadblock in Shaheen Bagh as we were earlier," he said.
