No party is big or small: Modi
Taking a swipe at the Opposition alliance, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said that “although India has a long tradition of coalitions, those formed with negativity have never succeeded”.
“No party is big or small in NDA, BJP got majority in 2014 and 2019 but NDA formed government,” he said.
Modi called the alliance a legacy of Atal Bihari Vajpayee and L K Advani and thanked leaders like Parkash Singh Badal, Balasaheb Thackeray, Ajit Singh and Sharad Yadav for contributing to shaping NDA.
The Prime Minister hailed the BJP-led NDA alliance as a time-tested one and said that the bloc seeks to further national progress and fulfil regional aspirations.
Leaders from 38 parties including Ekanth Shinde, K Palaniswami, Ramdas Athavale, and Chirag Paswan reached Delhi to attend the meeting.
