On Monday, Jagat Prakash Nadda, President of Bhartiya Janta Party reached Kerala to address the protest rally outside the Kerala Secretariat in Thiruvananthapuram, held by National Democratic Alliance (NDA) against the Communist Party of India (Marxist)-led Left Democratic Front (LDF) government in the state.
The rally was taken out ahead of the blast at Zamra International Convention & Exhibition Centre, Kalamassery, Kerala which caused deaths and left several injured.
While addressing the protestors, BJP chief JP Nadda: “We are all gathered here to combat the issues of misgovernance within Pinarayi Vijayan’s government, addressing the scandals and corruption plaguing the current administration. Our collective goal is to demonstrate solidarity in our efforts to bring prosperity, development, and good governance to Kerala.”
“This Dharna serves as a platform to express our dissatisfaction with the Pinarayi Vijayan government, which has been marked by disappointments and policy paralysis,” added Nadda.
“Under PM Shri Modi ji’s leadership, India has achieved remarkable progress in its economic landscape. India is now the world’s 5th largest economy, with over 13.5 crore people lifted out of extreme poverty. Over the past nine years, we have invested ₹18 lakh crore in infrastructure development. India’s growth rate stands at 6.3%, and by 2028, India is projected to contribute 18% to the global economy. This is a testament to the good governance of PM Shri Narendra Modi,” said JP Nadda, praising the economic policies of the Modi government at the Centre.
Before this, JP Nadda visited the Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, and offered prayers to Lord Mahavishnu. Sharing the pictures from his visit to the temple, Nadda wrote on X: “Started my day by paying obeisance at Sree Padmanabhaswamy Temple in Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, and offering prayers to Lord Mahavishnu for our country’s progress and the well-being of our people. The divine aura at this sacred temple engulfs oneself with a feeling of immense gratitude and tranquilly. May the Lord bless us all.”
