New Delhi : The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) on Sunday downplayed Congress general secretary Digvijaya Singh’s ‘country is burning’ under Prime Minister Narendra Modi rant and said that he might be talking about the condition of the grand old party.
BJP spokesperson Nalin Kohli told ANI, “I don’t know to whom Digvijaya Singh is referring in terms of that the country is burning, because a few days ago he was speaking about surgery. So perhaps his comment about the celebration and all might be also to the congress party since he calls for a surgery with regard to the country.”
“Prime Minister Modi’s government is making all those attempts to change the scenario we inherited from the Congress Party and it’s reflected in terms of the voting pattern we have also recently seen the votes are not going to the Congress they are either coming to BJP or other parties,” he added.
Digvijaya earlier on Sunday dubbed Prime Minister Narendra Modi as Roman emperor Nero and lashed out at the BJP-led NDA Government’s lavish celebration on completion of two years in office.
“Prime Minister Modi is saying the nation is changing and developing. The nation is burning and Nero (here PM Modi) is celebrating. Is this good governance of BJP and RSS,” he tweeted. The leaders of the BJP-led NDA regime, which completed its two years in office on May 26, are preaching loud and far about the development in the nation and promising good times in the future.
