Prime Minister Narendra Modi reached the seats of Congress president Sonia Gandhi, Samajwadi Party president Mulayam Singh Yadav and other opposition leaders and greeted them and publically felt the necessity of opposition in democracy, said Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) state vice president Raghunandan Sharma in a statement on Wednesday. Sharma said, “Only getting majority is not enough in majority, the spirit of democracy is building consensus by agreeing on disagree. If the opposition would not get respect and importance then the democracy would not become meaningful in its aim.”
Sharma further said that the prime minister by giving respect and providing importance to the opposition proved the notion wrong that the BJP is not sensitive towards opposition. The prime minister by his conduct and behavior assured the opposition that the notion about him and the BJP that we are not sensitive and tolerant towards opposition is wrong, he added.
He said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has developed the spirit of social interest during his two year rule in the country. Not only in the country but he has impressed by also extended the helping hand towards the neighboring countries. Besides, underlining the need for goodwill, restraint, positivity, service mentality, coordination and continuous dialogue to the party leader’s workers and his cabinet colleagues, he added.
The senior BJP leader said that Modi has always termed ruling side and opposition as the two sides and has always accepted their mutual faith and always emphasized for exchange of their ideas.
