NEW DELHI, Mar 11: Union Minister in Prime Minister’s Office, Dr Jitendra Singh today said, the BJP’s cruising to victory in Uttar Pradesh was an indication that Indian voter has risen above caste,creed, religion and region, for the first time in the 70 years’ history of Indian democracy.
Dr Jitendra Singh said, the result from Manipur , in particular, is a message from a remote State, where BJP was never in reckoning,to become a part of national mainstream under the leadership of Narendra Modi.
“The most important consequence of this is that for the first time we are seeing voters rising above caste,creed,religion and region considerations and voting for development. This also reflects that voters have moved away from the feudalistic mindset which influenced the Indian voters in earlier elections,” said Dr Jitendra Singh.
Taking a jibe at the Congress, Singh said, the party needed to come out of its dynasty politics to stay relevant.
“The results today are a clear and loud message that crisis of leadership is a natural consequence of dynasty politics which has now lived its life. The Congress has stuck to dynasty succession irrespective of the merit and aptitude of the succeeding generation,” added Singh.
