Plain Speak

Nitin Gadkari

“They changed the Constitution, and they blame us. The Janata Party rectified it. How many times was the Constitution amended during Indira Gandhi’s tenure? But the Congress does not want to respond to this. The BJP is neither a party of Prime Minister Narendra Modi nor Nitin Gadkari but it is a party of workers who dedicated their lives to it.”

Nitin Gadkari, Leader, BJP



Prithviraj Chavan

“Haryana and Maharashtra are not comparable. If you look at the Lok Sabha poll results, Haryana had a 5-5 result (five seats to the Congress and five to the BJP), but in Maharashtra we (MVA) had 65 per cent 35 per cent result. There is a huge difference.”

Prithviraj Chavan, Leader, Congress



Sharad Pawar

“Farmers who quench the hunger of the country are in distress, but the ruling parties are not concerned. Such people have no right to be in power. They must be unseated. In the last nine months 950 farmers have committed suicide. This is because they cannot recover capital investment, leading to burden of loans.”

Sharad Pawar, Leader, NCP(SP)
