Spokesperson: Shri Pawan Khera: He said that yesterday the Prime Minister was on election tour. Let us start from Madhya Pradesh he mentioned Congress 44 times in the 51-minute speech. When he goes to campaign for elections in a state where he has been in power for 19 years, he takes the name of Congress 44 times in 51 minutes, what does this tell us - that he has nothing to say about the achievements of his government? Zilch. Even where you are in power, you have to take the support of Congress. This is the condition of your state government, this is the condition of your central government.

Now, be it Himachal or Karnataka, wherever Modi ji set foot, Congress gets huge benefits there. That is why we consider him as our ‘Star Campaigner’. It is not good to be called a ‘Star Campaigner’ because he tells a lot of lies. If he starts telling a little truth, then Narendra Modi ji will be our best ‘Star Campaigner’. When I went to Madhya Pradesh, they said that sir, Congress is anti-women, Congress opposes the women’s bill. Sir, please think before you say something.

When was the Women’s Bill introduced? In 1989, when Late Shri Rajiv Gandhi was the Prime Minister, it was then that the Women’s Bill came in the Parliament, was passed in the Lok Sabha, but could not be passed in the Rajya Sabha. Why was it not passed, who were those 7 people who voted against the Women’s Bill? I count 1. Atal Bihari Vajpayee ji, 2. Lal Krishna Advani ji, 3. Ram Jethmalani ji, 4. Jaswant Singh ji.

You see, I have just counted 4 names for you, which party do all four belong to? Your party. At a time in 1989 when this bill could have been passed, your party leaders and your party MPs opposed this bill in the Rajya Sabha.Tuesday, September 26, 2023
