शीश ⴂ के घर ⴂ मᴂ बैठे ल ग पत्थर नही ⴂउछाला करते।

‘Bogus Blogger’ Minister, Shri and his incessant rants are being used by the Modi Govt to hide their massive failures on Unemployment, Rural Distress, Mismanagement of Economy, & Persecution of the Weaker Sections. PM Modi & Shri Arun Jaitley cannot hide behind daily blogs on ‘Non-Issues’ in order to hide the ‘Real-Issues’. Latest outburst of Shri Arun Jaitley against the Congress party is an orchestrated ‘PR Gimmick’ & a cheap ‘Cover Up Exercise’ for the colossal failures of the past 5 years. In its 133 year old rich history, Congress party has had 87 Presidents till now and it does not require any certificates of approval from the likes of PM Modi & Shri Arun Jaitley on its contribution to Nation Building. Infact those who destroyed 4.7 Crore Jobs.in last 5 years are preaching instead of introspecting. does not need any lecture from a party which carries an ideology engrained in a Sectarian Pamphlet called ‘Bunch of Thoughts’ by a bigoted fundamentalist called M S Golwalkar. India does not need any lecture from forces who sided with the British against the Indian people, in the struggle for freedom during the National Movement. India also does not need any lecture from people who pleaded clemency to the British throne as millions sacrificed their lives and spent lifetimes in British jails during the Freedom Movement. India does not need any lecture from people whose ideological forefathers were responsible for assassinating the Father of the Nation – Mahatma Gandhi. India does not need any lecture from a party whose leaders have never sacrificed a drop of blood for the country. Congress party is proud to have been elected by people of India to reshape its destiny for over 5 decades and celebrate the achievements of 130 Cr people of India. Since the BJP is so fond of talking about ‘Dynasty Politics’ – here is a small ‘Mirror of Truth’:-

 Home Minister, Shri ’s son Shri Pankaj Singh now an MLA in .  Finance Minister, Shri Arun Jaitley’s father-in-law was the Finance Minister of J&K for 14 years.  EAM Smt. ’s husband Shri Swaraj Kaushal was Governor of Mizoram.  RM Smt. ’s father in law was a Minister in Andhra Pradesh Govt in 1970’s.  Railway Minister Shri Piyush Goel’s father was Shri Ved Prakash Goyal was the Union Minister of Shipping in Vajpayee Govt.  Cabinet Minister Shri is a son of Former Minister in Vajpayee Govt, Shri Debendra Pradhan.  MoS Shri is the son of Former Union Minister, Shri .  Ex CM, Smt. ’s son is Shri Dushyant Singh, who is a BJP MP.  Ex CM, Dr ’s son Shri Abhishek Singh, who is a BJP MP.  Ex CM, Shri B S Yeddyurappa’s son is Shri B. Y. Raghavendra, who is a BJP MP.  Ex CM Shri ’s son is Shri , a BJP MP.

 Uttar Pradesh Ex CM, Shri ’s son is Shri Rajbir Singh, who is a BJP MP.  Ex CM, Shri 's son is Shri is an MP.  Delhi Ex CM, Shri ’s son is Shri Harish Khurana, BJP Spokesperson.  Ex Union Minister, Shri Pramod Mahajan’s daughter is Ms , a BJP MP.  Ex Union Minister, Shri Gopinath Munde’s daughter is Ms , who is a BJP MP.  BJP's National General Secretary 's son is Akash Vijayvargiya, an MLA in . These are some prominent examples.

BJP’s hypocrisy on ‘dynasty politics’ also continues with its choice of allies:-

 BJP’s oldest ally – Akali Dal is led by Former Punjab CM Shri Prakash Singh Badal, whose son Shri Sukhbir Badal was the deputy CM of Punjab and wife Smt. Harsimrat Badal, a Union Minister in Modi Govt.  BJP’s ally- Lok Jan Shakti Party is led by Union Minister, Shri , his son Shri Chirag Paswan is also an MP.  BJP’s UP ally- Apna Dal was led by patriarch, Shri Sone Lal Patel, his daughter, Smt. is an MoS in the Modi Govt.

Family background is not the guarantee for political success. It is the people who have the power to accept and reject in the political arena. It is the people of India who have elected the Congress party time and again and shall vote Congress party again to power in 2019 elections. 5 State Elections which the BJP lost was just a trailer, people of India shall show them the film on 23rd May 2019.
