Congress leader strongly condemns BJP President Amit Shah’s statement that there would be celebrations in Pakistan if the NDA loses elections in Bihar
Hyderabad: Leader of Opposition in Telangana Legislative Council Mohammed Ali Shabbir has strongly condemned the statement of BJP president Amit Shah that there would be celebrations in Pakistan if the NDA loses elections in Bihar. In a statement here on Friday, the Congress leader said the BJP leaders were trying to win the elections in Bihar on the basis of polarisation, communalism and hatred.
“Amit Shah must be ashamed of calling Biharis as Pakistanis. Either he must apologise for his comments or explain the link between the results of Assembly elections in an Indian State and Pakistan," Shabbir Ali added. He further stated that the BJP leaders cannot live without thinking about Pakistan.
BJP senior leader L.K. Advani had once praised Mohammed Ali Jinnah, the man responsible for India's partition. Atal Bihari Vajpayee is still considered the most favourite Indian Prime Minister in Pakistan. Prime Minister Narendra Modi felt comfortable in the company of his Pakistan counterpart Nawaz Sharif during his oath-taking ceremony.
Shabbir Ali stated the BJP president must understand the difference between a political opponent and an enemy country. In a democratic set-up, all parties contest elections and seek votes on the basis of their manifesto or performance. Since BJP lacks both, agenda and achievements, its leaders are seeking votes by intimidating voters.
"Amit Shah's statement is an advance confession that BJP is losing elections in Bihar. By giving an irresponsible statement, Amit Shah tried to call everyone who vote in favour of grand alliance of JD-U, RJD, Congress and other parties as Pakistanis," he alleged.
