Gurdaspur/Chandigarh, November 3
Union Minister of State and former Haryana BJP President Krishan Pal Gurjar stated that in the 79-year history of independent India, a change of power has never occurred through anarchy; it has always taken place through the public mandate delivered by the people of the country. However, the Congress and its allies want to change the regime through anarchy, something the people of India will never accept.
Gurjar was addressing Punjab BJP’s ‘Loktantra Bachao, Arajakta Hatao’ (Save Democracy, Remove Anarchy) padayatra in Gurdaspur. Organised in Gurdaspur today, this march commenced from the city’s old bus stand and concluded at Hanuman Chowk. A large number of party leaders and workers from Amritsar, Tarn Taran, Gurdaspur, and Pathankot districts participated.
Party State General Secretaries Jiwan Garg and Rajnish Dhiman, former Deputy Speaker of Punjab Vidhan Sabha Dinesh Babbu, State General Secretary Rajesh Bagha, Pathankot District President Baghel Singh, Amritsar District President Salil Kapoor, along with Amarpal Singh Bony, Rakesh Sharma, Harvinder Singh, Harjinder Singh, and Suresh Sharma were also present during the yatra.
Gurjar stated that during Congress rule, the Constitution and democracy were attacked numerous times. Now, Rahul Gandhi and Congress National President Mallikarjun Kharge have stooped to using abusive language against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his family. He said that the words coming from a party leader’s mouth reflect the character of that party. He added that the Constitution of India provides the path of elections for a change in governance, not attempts to alter governments by gathering mobs on the streets.
Speaking on the occasion, former Punjab BJP State President Ashwani Sharma said, “Whenever democracy in this country is threatened, and whenever the Congress party shreds the Constitution to pieces, the BJP will take to the streets.” These ‘Loktantra Bachao, Arajakta Hatao’ yatras are being carried out across the country as part of the BJP’s public outreach campaign to awaken citizens against the Congress’s attempt to change power through anarchy.
Ashwani Sharma remarked that under the leadership of Narendra Modi, the country is emerging as a powerful global force, but Rahul Gandhi does not want to see India progress. He added that Rahul Gandhi and his allies are raising slogans of “vote theft,” whereas stealing votes has historically been a tradition of their own lineage.
