'Congress Trying To Destabilise Nation, People Will Give Befitting Reply In 2029' Says JP Nadda At BJP Rally In Bhopal

Union minister JP Nadda, speaking at the BJP's Lok Tantra Bachao, Arajakta Hatao rally in Bhopal, accused the Congress of attempting to destabilise the nation by questioning the Election Commission over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls. Nadda alleged that the Opposition party was conspiring against constitutional institutions in its desperation to regain power.

He warned the people of India that they would hold Congress accountable in the 2029 Lok Sabha elections and upcoming Assembly polls in Uttar Pradesh, other poll-bound states in 2028.

Targeting Rahul Gandhi, Nadda called him a "naive child" and accused the Opposition of practising "hit-and-run" politics. He highlighted Congress's long periods out of power in various states, predicting its defeat in Karnataka and Himachal Pradesh. Nadda's BJP counterpart, Chief Minister Mohan Yadav, alleged that Congress tried to destabilise the nation each time it was out of power.

Yadav accused Congress leaders of misleading the people about democracy and targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi. BJP leaders promised to organize similar marches across districts.

State BJP president Hemant Khandelwal pointed out that 10 of the country's 12 SIR exercises were conducted during Congress rule, only two under BJP governments. He questioned why Congress was now opposing the exercise. The rally concluded with BJP leaders leading a march from Atal Path to Roshanpura Square, where party workers carried flags and placards. Muslim women wearing burqas also participated in the demonstration.
