38 Parties Will Attend NDA Meeting On Tuesday, Says BJP Chief JP Nadda

The BJP announced today that it will hold a mega meeting of 38 parties under the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in Delhi on Tuesday. The meeting comes just days after 26 opposition parties met in Bengaluru to discuss a united front against the ruling BJP at the center.

Addressing a press conference on Monday, BJP National President JP Nadda said NDA's reach and scope have increased over the years. He said the NDA constituents are upbeat due to the positive impact of the Narendra Modi government's schemes and policies.

"National Democratic Alliance is an ideal alliance meant to serve and strengthen the country...UPA neither has a leader nor does it have the power to take decisions. It is an alliance based on selfish interests and is only for photo opportunities," JP Nadda attacked UPA.

He further alleged that UPA is an alliance based on "selfish interests and is only for photo opportunities." He highlighted the efforts that were made under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and were praised globally. "In the last 9 years, we have seen the strong leadership of PM Modi which has been appreciated by many. Zero tolerance for corruption has also increased. The PM has also set an example in Covid19 management," JP Nadda said.

He asserted that good governance work has been done in the last 9 years by the NDA government and stressed that the Modi-led government will continue working on it. "Good governance work has been done in the last 9 years by the NDA government and we are continuously working on it. Rs 28 lakh cr have directly transferred to beneficiary (DBT) till date," Nadda added.

With less than a year to go for the elections, both the BJP and the opposition are busy fine-tuning their strategies and reaching out to allies. The NDA meeting in Delhi is seen as a way for the BJP to consolidate its support base and to send a message to the opposition that it is confident of winning the next elections.
