Union minister Dharmendra Pradhan slammed the Aam Aadmi Party as a gang of “loud-mouthed people” as the BJP and AAP’s noisy election campaign in Gujarat heated up. Pradhan questioned the “Delhi model” when speaking at a press conference on the BJP’s “Gujarat Gaurav Yatra” and claimed he is afraid of “those who show no responsibility.”
“This (AAP) is a group of loud-mouthed people… What is their Delhi model? If they are honest, they should take you (the media) to Delhi to see it. I’m scared of people who show no responsibility, this is such a group of people,” the minister said.
Padhan, who was in Gujarat for the yatra, expressed confidence in the BJP’s keeping control of the state, which is headed for elections.
“I am here amongst you today to take part in the BJP’s ‘Gujarat Gaurav Yatra’. We are confident that this time again, the people of the state will express their confidence in us,” he said.
In the presence of the chief minister, Bhupendra Patel, and other BJP officials, JP Nadda, the president of the BJP, officially launched the “Gujarat Gaurav Yatra” on Wednesday in Mehsana.
Nadda said that the BJP is a “pro-active, pro-responsible, and pro-responsive administration” that understands the plight of the populace while addressing a public rally on the occasion.
“What did Congress do for years? pitted brothers against each other, areas against each other, and did not supply water where it was needed. Jo vikas ki yatra chalani thi usko atkaya, bhatkaya, latkaya. Now they themselves are stuck…”
Today in Ahmedabad, the “Gujarat Gaurav Yatra” will be officially launched by Union Home Minister Amit Shah. He will begin the yatra and pay homage at Sant Shree Savaiyanath Samadhi Sthaan in Zanzarka. The Gujarat Gaurav Yatra and the Adivasi Vikas Yatra will then be officially launched by the Union minister at the Unai Mata Temple in the Navsari district.
