New Delhi, Oct 1: Congress today dismissed as “Goebbelsian tactics” BJP's prediction that early Lok Sabha polls cannot be ruled out as the government is in a “suicidal mode” and accused the opposition party of misleading the nation with its propaganda.
“They know there is no affirmative support for them from the people so they are now indulging in Goebbelsian tactics of misleading the nation day in and day out. But a BJP lie repeated a 1000 times cannot become truth,” party spokesman Abhishek Singhvi told reporters here.
Dubbing the BJP as a “rudderless ship”, he wondered whether the opposition party has convinced itself that “it is an active pretender to power. These are nothing but delusions of grandeur and the sooner they come out of it the better”.
His reaction came after the BJP veteran L K Advani as also senior leaders Arun Jaitley and Sushma Swaraj underlined the need for the party to be ready for mid-term polls.
Advani said that “there is a crisis of governance and this government is in a suicidal mode. We do not need to disturb it”.
“The government is full of corruption and does not deserve to be in office.... We must gear up as you never know what is in the offing,” he said. PTI
