The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has begun its two-day national council meeting at Ramlila Maidan in Delhi from today. The meeting gains crucial importance as it sets the tone for the party ahead of the 2019 Lok Sabha Elections.
While BJP President Amit Shah inaugurated the meeting on Friday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will deliver the concluding speech on Saturday, laying down the agenda for the general elections.
In his inaugural speech from the Ramlila Maidan, Shah listed out Modi government's achievements while also attacking 'Mahagathbandhan'. The BJP president said the opposition's alliance was an acknowledgement of their strength. PM Modi is now nucleus of politics like Congress once was, he said. Shah also said that the grand alliance had no nationwide influence and was defeated in 2014. Hailing the prime minister, Shah said there was no leader as popular as Narendra Modi in the entire world. On Rahul Gandhi, he said that the Congress President was making allegations of corruption in the Rafale deal without any proof.
