New Delhi, Oct 8 — Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) President Nitin Nabin, taking a derisive taunt at the Congress and INDIA bloc allies over Election Commission (EC) protests in the national capital, said on Thursday that their demonstration remains 'timed' with the elections and with an intent to earn electoral dividend from it.
He asserted that the BJP and its workers remain in mission mode, 24x7 and every single day comes with new set of responsibilities while describing Prime Minister Narendra Modi's conviction and commitment towards public welfare as the key inspiration behind it.
Taking direct potshots at Lok Sabha Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi and the Opposition INDIA bloc, Nabin said that they possess an "anarchist mindset" and only know how to "inject poison into society" while criticising their protest against the EC, based on 'unfounded and baseless' allegations of vote theft.
Questioning the rationale behind Opposition's protests, the BJP Chief said that this is the same Election Commission which conducted the elections in Kerala and Tamil Nadu, where they are in power.
"If their allegations were true, it was this very Election Commission that conducted the elections in Kerala. In Tamil Nadu, where they came into power through the backdoor, the elections were also conducted by this very Election Commission," Nabin added.
He said that the nation was watching the "game they (Opposition) were playing" and demanded that Rahul Gandhi resigns, if he has the courage.
Addressing the gathering in Varanasi, the BJP President also added that today's generation represents change public representatives running governments must understand their aspirations.
"The new generation wants to express its views, and we need to listen to them. The youth gave overwhelming support to Prime Minister Narendra Modi in 2014," Nabin said.
Outlining party's objectives, going forward, the BJP President added that the party's effort is to ensure that party leadership engages directly with young people and works towards finding solutions to their problems.
"We have not achieved everything yet, but we are certainly moving in the right direction," he asserted.
