In the general elections held in the country, the Bharatiya Janata Party faced a crushing defeat in Bengal. In the meantime, BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari has made a controversial statement during the BJP state executive meeting in West Bengal. “We will not say ‘sabka saath, sabka vikas’, we will say ‘those who are with us, we are with them’,” he said.
That is, sabka saath, sabka vikas slogan which PM Narendra Modi is raising from every platform, Suvendu Adhikari has talked about changing it.
Not only this, Suvendu Adhikari did not stop there. He also said, “There is no such thing as a nationalist Muslim. We are with those who are with us.” Apart from this, the official also said that there is no need for a minority front.
This statement by Suvendu Adhikari is completely different from the party’s slogan “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas”. Apart from this, the Bengal BJP has also attributed its defeat to preventing Hindus from voting in West Bengal. Now the anger of its leaders is venting on Muslims.
Official slogans against Modi’s slogans
This official’s statement is different from the slogan given by Prime Minister Modi after coming to power in 2014. PM Modi spoke about taking the whole of India forward in the direction of development by giving the slogan ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’. From Suvendu Adhikari’s new statement, it seems that he is only talking about the development of people who have voted for BJP.
Adhikari defeated Mamata
Suvendu Adhikari, who left the Trinamool Congress (TMC) to join the BJP, won the Nandigram seat against CM Mamata Banerjee in the 2021 assembly elections. The official’s statement comes at a time when tensions are rising in West Bengal politics and the BJP is trying to gain a foothold in the state after its defeat.
