Shah targets Cong on legacy politics

On the second day of his 'Vistaar Pravas' in Uttar Pradesh, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Amit Shah once again made a scathing attack on the Congress leadership while addressing the intellectuals in Lucknow on Sunday. He said, "It is known that Rahul Gandhi will be the party president after Sonia Gandhi, but for BJP none can presume."
Shah also claimed that BJP believes in democratic system and the party is founded on the basis of its principles and is committed to the country's welfare. "A party must prioritise its internal democracy at first and if it doesn't, then the party cannot serve the country's democracy," Shah asserted.
Shah further mentioned that the saffron party had always pitched for national problems and its aim was to serve the people for development. "The incumbent government is serving the democracy for more development based on its principles and decisions. The policies of the first Indian government were more 'Westernized'," the BJP president added.
Meanwhile, the party leadership sounded more optimistic over its win in 2019 Lok Sabha elections.
According to a recent survey by BJP, 73 per cent people in India support Prime Minister Narendra Modi and that will help BJP bag 55 per cent vote-share in 2019 Lok Sabha elections, whereas Congress would get less than 10 per cent votes.
The party attributed the recent wins in the Assembly elections to the positive politics and positive governance of PM Modi.
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath also called the party president Amit Shah as "Chanakya of modern times".
"Before the 2014 Lok Sabha elections, no one could say that BJP would bag such a big victory but Amit Shah, who was in charge of the party, could make it. In fact he is the modern Chanakya."
