Congress may be reduced to double digits in LS polls, predicts Advani

The BJP leader said Congress prospects in the Lok Sabha polls may be similar to the post-Emergency polls.

"Till before these last Assembly elections, I always used to recall the post-Emergency Lok Sabha elections of 1977 to caution the Congress Party how, in a vibrant democracy popular fury can become the most effective instrument for ushering into the political system the much needed attribute of accountability," he said.

BJP has targeted the Congress-led UPA government on issues of corruption, scams and demanded that efforts be made to bring Indian Black money stashed in tax havens abroad. Advani had taken out a Jan Chetna Yatra in 2011 to highlight these issues.
