Yashwant Sinha: BJP has failed to fulfill all its promises

aim has been to remain in power by peddling false promises and fake news,” Mr Sinha told reporters in the city. “The BJP had promised in 2016 that they would do

uble farmers’ income by 2022. What happened to this ‘Jumla’? Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke about demonetization in Goa. What happened to getting all the black money back in 30 days? Did that happen? No! Instead, 99 per cent of the notes came back to the RBI,” he said. Mr Sinha said neither BJP led central government can be trusted nor the data released by Central agencies. Regarding the alleged post-poll violence in West Bengal, Mr Sinha, who is Vice President of Trinamool Congress, said, “The moment BJP realizes that they will lose a particular election, they begin spreading false propaganda.” ”In fact, when they fail to get political mileage out of Hindu-Muslim, they drag in Pakistan. I bow my head in shame that in the upcoming UP and Goa elections, Pakistan is the key poll issue.” Mr Sinha alleged that the Prime Minister had disrespected his post with the ‘Didi-O-Didi’ remark. Making a strong observation on the Election Commission, he said, “It seems like the Covid norms declared by the EC are for all political parties except the BJP. EC is so flexible as far as BJP is concerned that for them, they will even pardon 100 murders.” When asked as to why he had quit the BJP after being associated with the party for decades, the veteran leader said, “The party’s fabric is no longer what it was at the time of AB Vajpayee. Look at what’s happening around you. Despite being one of the tallest leaders of the party, Rajnath Singh has been completely side-lined in Uttar Pradesh. Modi and Shah want to run the party all by themselves.”
