Nitin Gadkari

“In 75 years of India’s history, the Congress never gave priority to the development of the country’s rural side. There were no roads in villages or drinking water. Congress never seriously thought of the development of rural India. Had the rural India got priority then farmers would not have committed suicide, there would not have been poverty in the villages.”

Nitin Gadkari, Leader, BJP



Jairam Ramesh

“The non-biological PM is in Nanded and Akola today. Four questions for him - Where does the BJP stand on the issue of a caste census and raising the cap of 50 per cent reservations for Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, and OBCs imposed by the Supreme Court?”

Jairam Ramesh, Leader, Congress




Asaduddin Owaisi

“Devendra Fadnavis is talking about ‘vote jihad’ in the state. But do they use the same language when the prime minister (Narendra Modi) visits Arab countries. They are just targeting only one community. They should answer why they failed to ensure reservation for the Maratha community.”

Asaduddin Owaisi, President, AIMIM
