The Bharatiya Janata Party has strongly condemned the statement reportedly made by a senior Congress leader against Brahmins. The BJP has opined that this statement is an attempt to divide the society. Further, the party has stated that the statement of the leader about not letting the BJP win in the elections is nothing but a hollow dream.
The BJP state media in-charge Devendra Bhasin said that Congress leader and former cabinet minister Rajendra Bhandari’s statement regarding Brahmins and casteism is very deplorable. Referring to the statement, the audio clip of which has gone viral on the social media, Bhasin said that this is a proof of the type of politics the Congress indulges in to create divisions within society.
He said, “The Congress has always played the politics of division in society. The Congress adopts various types of tactics to achieve power. The statement made by Bhandari is but a part of this tactic. However, the Congress now stands exposed, because of which its position is spiraling downward. The BJP works on the principle of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas’ and moves forwards along with all sections of society.
