Democracy is keep lies and promises and making common people fools

When party workers getting wisdom and idea about real picture then they stop quarrelling for party and leaders.

Whatever.. poor party worker always suffer. Leaders are in good terms on "behind the screen"

BJP's victory is history. BJP alone contested and won. BJP didnt go for any horse trading or ugly coalition

BJP shown their failure frustration. That led to clash

I am not cong supporter, but still i can tell cong people are less trouble makers. Its proven in Many cases. BJP always looking forward to make unwanted issues and communal statements
