Home Minister Amit Shah on Wednesday said the BJP wants to fight and win elections based on its ideology, program, leadership popularity and government performance, and does not express violence against rivals. In response to the debate in the Lok Sabha on the Delhi Municipal Corporation (Amendment) Bill, 2022, Shah said that the BJP wants to form a government everywhere and that is why they are fighting elections.
“Why did you go to Goa, why are you going to Tripura. You have the right to go, I would not say don’t go, every party has to go everywhere with their ideology, program, performance, that is the beauty of democracy,” Shah TMC MP Saugat Roy said in an apparent response. “Those who are afraid of losing power can object, not the proponents of democracy,” he said.
“I mean, based on our program, our ideology, the popularity of leadership and the performance of our government, we want to fight elections and win everywhere. But we don’t want to seize power by killing rival party workers. (Rival) party workers rape wives and daughters “It’s not our culture,” Shah told West Bengal and the ruling TMC. He also taunted Congress and the TMC, saying they were a party run for the family and did not have internal elections for years.
“First select your team, then talk about the country,” Shah said.
