The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Sunday hit back at opposition parties’ INDIA bloc as the latter has organised a mega rally in the national capital against the arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and “to save democracy”.
BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla said the INDIA bloc rally is nothing but, “Parivar bachao, bhrashtrachar chupao (protect the family and hide the corruption) rally”.
“Those parties which, from last 30-40 years, were engulfed in total corruption, those were controlled by family fiefdom and those whose basic modest operandi of the politics was to create a communal, regional, linguistic divide and caste divide, and try to snatch the power and then fill up their coffers for the interest of their family. Now they are trying to raise this bogey of Lok Tantra Bachao. But the fact of the matter is, it’s not ‘Lok Tantra Bachao’, it is ‘Parivar Bachao aur Bhashtachar Chhupao,” BJP MP Sudhanshu Trivedi said.
