He has proven himself as a national leader for multiple times. He is one of the popular leaders. We all want him and love him. There is no objection and difference in the alliance.”
He further said, “Since the commencement of the elections, the INDIA alliance has no dissonance over the post of Prime Minister. This alliance has always fought to save democracy and the constitution from the dictatorial governance of the BJP and people have voted for us. Narendra Modi and Amit Shah should accept their defeat.”
‘Modi Ki Sarkaar – NDA Ki Sarkaar But Where Is It?’
Taking a jibe at the BJP, Raut stated, “Since yesterday, I am noticing that they are iterating ‘Modi ki Sarkaar – NDA Ki Sarkaar’, but where is it? They were talking about bringing ‘Modi Ki Sarkaar’. BJP hadn’t got any majority. They have around 235-240 seats only.” Speaking about the support from Nitish Kumar’s JDU and Chandrababu Naidu’s TDP to the BJP-led NDA, Raut said, “The government they want to form with the support of two pillars – TDP (Telugu Desham Party) and JDU (Janata Dal-United), can be diminished at any moment. Modi Ji has lost the respect and the ‘Modi Brand’ is finished now. We don’t want such a Prime Minister now.”
He further said, “They have got the numbers of 235-240 with the support of ED (Enforcement Directorate) CBI (Central Bureau of Investigation) and Income Tax Department. These numbers are achieved in the apprehension of these agencies.”
