Sonia Attacks BJP Govt At Centre
Attacking the BJP-led government at the Centre, she said, "This is a challenging time for Congress and the country as a whole. BJP-RSS has captured and subverted every single institution in the country. It has caused economic ruin by favouring a few businessmen."
She said that BJP is fuelling a fire of hatred and is viciously targeting minorities, women, Dalits, and tribals. "We must tackle the BJP regime with vigour, reach out to people and convey our message with clarity," she added.
