Digvijay said this election was a direct fight between two ideologies. “One that believed in Gandhian non-violence and the other that of Guruji Golwalkar which stood for communal violence in the name of religion,” he said.
He also claimed that there was no wave in favour of Narendra Modi in the country and said it was a “media creation”, which will die when results are declared on May 16. Even before 2004 and 2009 Lok Sabha elections, the BJP spoke about a wave in its favour...this time also such a thing would happen, he said.
“I am sure the next government in the country would be formed under the leadership of Sonia and Rahul Gandhi,” Digvijay added.
On Monday, Rajnath Singh, who is contesting the Lok Sabha elections from Lucknow, which has a sizable Muslim population, including Shias, held meetings with vice-president of the All India Muslim Personal Law Board Maulana Kalbe Sadiq, Maulana Kalbe Jawwad, Maulana Hameeudul Hassan, Maulana Yasoob Abbas and Maulana Khalid Rasheed along with sitting MP Lalji Tandon and Mayor Dinesh Sharma, raising a few eyebrows. Soon after, the Congress had accused the BJP of seeking votes on communal lines, a charge that was rubbished by Tandon, who said it was courtesy visit.
