Wooing disgruntled opposition leaders shows bankruptcy of BJP: Harsh

Excelsior Correspondent

UDHAMPUR, Nov 7: Accusing the BJP of hobnobbing with defectors of Congress, NPP and NC in order to redeem its lost credibility, Harsh Dev Singh, chairman JKNPP and former Minister said that the Saffron party had proved once again that it could go to any extent to gain access to the seat of power.
There have been several reports of BJP leadership meeting the disgruntled and redundant leaders of opposition parties and wooing them to join their rank and file notwithstanding their uninspiring antecedents. Harsh said while addressing huge public meetings in Vinisang, Bain and Baishty in Chenani constituency.
The JKNPP chairman said that it was interesting to note those leaders who were the pioneers of the slogans of self-rule and autonomy and critics of BJP ideology were being embraced by it in a desperate bid to revive its lost ground.
“Politics makes strange bed fellows. And BJP has proved it time and again. It entered into alliance with PDP despite tall announcements made during 2014 elections to demolish the father-daughter (Bapp-Beti) party and conceded the chair of CM for full term to PDP. The same party is now trying to promote some disgruntled politicians of opposition besides stitching new alliances with some Kashmir based parties so as to capture power in J&K,” asserted Singh.
Describing the BJP’s latest move as another shocker in the gory list of BJP’s opportunist politics, Singh said that its mindless wooing of Congress, NC and NPP leaders only revealed its bankruptcy. Having lost its ground in Jammu it was desperately trying to bring in its fold those who had been discarded, disowned and rendered defunct, regretted Singh.
Singh appealed the people of Jammu to support their own regional party which alone could navigate the people of Dogra land.
