Modi ‘self-destruct mantra’ of BJP: Congress

The Congress on Tuesday called BJP’s prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi as the “self destruct mantra” of the party.

“Modi is the self destruct mantra of BJP. Last few days implosions and explosions in BJP are only precursor to real firefight in the offing,” Congress party spokesperson Abhishek Manu Singhvi tweeted.

Singhvi was referring to the recent dissent brewing within the Bharatiya Janata Party over ticket allocation, with party leader Jaswant Singh Monday filing his nomination as an independent candidate after being denied the ticket to contest the Lok Sabha election from Barmer in Rajasthan.”If (LK) Advani, Jaswant (Singh), Harin Pathak, (Rajendrasinh) Rana, (Lal Muni) Choubey, Lalji Tandon cannot trust Modi, how can the nation? Jab apne tumhare nahin to Desh kaise?,” Singhvi wrote.
