BJP spokesperson Shukla slams Cong for ‘anti-national politics’

Silchar: BJP national spokesperson Prem Shukla on Monday launched a sharp attack on Congress and its Assam president Gaurav Gogoi, accusing the party of engaging in "anti-national politics." Shukla's comments came during a press conference in Silchar, where he emphasized the BJP's commitment to national unity and development. He argued that Congress's recent actions and statements have been detrimental to the nation's interests, particularly in Assam, a state with significant strategic importance. Shukla criticized Gogoi's leadership, claiming it has been marked by divisive rhetoric and policies that undermine Assam's progress. He highlighted instances where Congress allegedly prioritized political gains over national welfare, suggesting this approach could destabilize the region. The BJP spokesperson urged citizens to be vigilant against narratives that could harm the country's fabric, positioning the BJP as the sole defender of national integrity. In response, Congress representatives dismissed Shukla's accusations, labeling them as baseless and politically motivated. They argued that the BJP is attempting to divert attention from pressing issues like unemployment and inflation. As political tensions rise in Assam, both parties are gearing up for a fierce electoral battle, each striving to convince voters of their vision for the state's future.
