Our agenda is development, not Hindutva: Venkaiah Naidu
Hyderabad: Ruling out Ram Mandir as an election issue in 2014 eletions, BJP leader M Venkaiah Naidu said the party will go in elections with development as election plank. Elaborating on how the party would put country back on the tracks of development, he emphasised that one of the issues needing more attention, was bringing back the black money stashed in foreign banks. According to him, the party’s decision to crown Modi as PM candidate was welcomed by all sections. Denying that Modi is a divisive figure, he said that in the last elections in Gujarat, the CM was supported by not less that 30 per cent of the Muslims.
“Gujarati Muslim’s per capita income tops the list amongst the various States of the country. What else do you need,” he said while answering a question. He clarified that Hindutva would not be an electoral issue. “Hindutva is not an election issue. It is the cultural identity of the nation,” he noted.
