BJP says stop calling defeat a 'moral win'


New Delhi, Dec 20 (DHNS): Reacting to Rahul Gandhi's remark that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has lost credibility after the Gujarat elections, Union HRD Minister Prakash Javadekar reminded him that it was the Congress that had lost in the polls which he was passing off a "victory."

Javadekar said, "the BJP has formed the government for the sixth time in a row in Gujarat. It has got a 2/3rd majority in Himachal Pradesh. And Rahul Gandhi is saying that the BJP has suffered a massive blow. People have put their faith in BJP and it's the people who were calling Vikas 'mad'-have been given the jolt."

"In 2014, the Congress lost the elections under Rahul Gandhi's leadership. And now he is considering the defeat in Assembly elections as a victory. People of this country are giving regular blows to the Congress and Rahul says that Modi has credibility issues and his credibility has gone down in the eyes of people. Rahul claims that BJP has got a jolt. What are his scriptwriters doing? The jolt is for Congress. The Congress has lost the elections, but his managers can't make him understand that" Javadekar said.

Union Parliamentary Affairs Minister Ananth Kumar said, "Credibility of the Congress and Rahul Gandhi is at an all-time low while that of Modi is at an all-time high not just in India but globally."

    In Gujarat, BESHARAM JANARA PARTY must be GRATEFUL to the" ONLY & ONE THE GRATE MANI SHANKER AIYAR" . BJP was on the verge of humiliating defeat. Knowing the fact, he pulled the cord of his agent in Congress, alas!!! he acted as the script written in Nagpur!!!!! First, the blow of "NEECH" and to boost the first blow, came the second ICBM of "DINNER" Party to Indias No.1 enemy Papistan ex-minister. The Crook BJP en - cashed it to the extent of winning a simple majority!!!

    Learn the difference between CEO of a Private blood sucking company and PM of the Nation.
    They are here to serve the common people. Using dirty and NEECH politics is beneath any politician and being a Prime Minister he has disgraced the Post.
    Ofcourse its a moral win. People have started losing trust in Modi already. 77 seats have been bagged by congress and 99 by BJP. The wheel of Time is in Congress's favour.
    What the Modi government has done is encourage private investments which though looks attractive right now will prove to be disastrous. He is literally selling away his country.

    This is what is called Ego and Arrogance. Even after losing they don''t want to be humble. And if they would have won what would have been the situation. Just like Jignesh Mevani winning for the first time as MLA and asking PM to retire who has been winning elections for more than 20 years. If congi would have won 92 seats they would asked all Indians to go to Himalayas .

    It is definitely moral victory for Rahul even if the party could not form a government. It has given a hope to congress that BJP can be defeated. But, congress has to be careful here i.e. BJP has won only because of Modi. So he knows how to snatch victories from a sure loss situation. So undermining Modi's ability to pull off victories against a tide is a something which congress can do on its own peril. Only victory in the last two years which Congress could manage is Punjab where Rahul never campaigned. Capt Arminder Singh ensured that Rahul does not damage his chances. It will be interesting to see if Siddu will allow Rahul to do much in Karnataka .

    CONgress took the help of hardik, jignesh, alpesh but still couldn't win. Pidi man's temple run, the media portraying hardik as a hero during Patel agitation and all this FAILED. Shows that CONgress can't try to win on their own. Ha

    BJP cant digest the fact that they have failed to score a century. This election 99* but next election 0 (out in the first ball).

    3 years before they were speaking of "CONGRESS MUKTH BHARAT". Now BJP MUKTH GUJARAT is on a verge of reality. 56 '' has come down to 24''.
