Today, the entire army is supporting the BJP: Rajyavardhan Rathore

Jaipur | Union Minister Rajyavardhan Rathore in Jaipur added to the controversy by asserting that the entire army is supporting the Bhartiya Janata Party.

Rathore, who is also the Information and Broadcasting Minister, told news agency ANI, “Fauj mein toh hum the na, hume pata hai na kya hua kya nahi hua. Saari sena aaj Bharatiya Janta Party Modi ji ke saath khadi hai, aise hi nahi khadi huyi,hum jaante hain wahan kya hota tha (We were in the Army. We know what happened and what did not. The entire forces are standing up with the BJP and Modi ji today. It’s not without reason. We know what happens)”.

When asked to comment on the Congress claiming that they carried out six surgical strikes in their rule, he denied the declaration and said that he was in the army and he knows what had happened and what did not happen.

In a press conference held by Congress leader Rajeev Shukla earlier this week, he announced that the UPA rule had also accomplished six surgical strikes, alleging exact dates and places.

“6 surgical strikes were conducted during the Manmohan Singh government. One was conducted on June 19, 2008 in Bhattal Sector in J&K’s Poonch, one from Aug 30-September 1, 2011 in Sharda Sector across Neelam River Valley in Kel, another one was carried out on January 6, 2013 at Sawan Patra Checkpost; one on July 27 and July 28, 2013 at Nazapir Sector; August 6, 2013 at Neelam Valley; and one on January 14, 2014,” he had said.

The BJP has been in the heat ever since the party started using Army and the Balakot Air Strikes in their campaign speeches.

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, among other top leaders, had used the term “Modiji ki Sena”.

BJP has also faced a lot of backlash for using nuclear power and military strength during elections.
