With the conference,PM Modi is aiming at mobilising support from the general public and galvanising the party workers into action for the upcoming Lok Sabha election, said NDTV in a report.
Major opposition party to the BJP, the Congress criticised the BJP and the PM for such a move amidst the capture of one of our IAF pilots by Pakistan.
“Right now, we are faced with a crisis. We want the pilot back. We want to know how is he. Everybody is worried about him. And you are worried about addressing some booth workers?” a Congress spokesperson told NDTV.
Pawan Khera, Congress Spokesperson also asked the ruling BJP to not take political mileage of the tragic killing of Jawans in Pulwama. He also prioritised to bring Wing Commander Abhi Nandan back.
My appeal to India’s ruling party – please stop taking cheap political mileage of the tragic killings of our Jawans in #Pulwama. Your priority should be to bring our #WingCommander back & bring justice to the families of our Jawans. We stand with you, if you stand with our forces https://t.co/pbIJBtLK5x
