00:00And now that the India Block's mega Ramlila Maidan rally has concluded, BJP will be countering Rahul Gandhi's attack shortly.
00:10Point-by-point counter to India Block by the BJP shortly.
00:13It will be holding a press conference in just a few minutes from now.
00:18So mega showdown over opposition rally.
00:21Samit Patra, the BJP MP, will be addressing the media shortly.
00:24BJP chief Nitin Nabeen has asserted that a victory is bona fide.
00:28BJP chief also counts mega wins in Delhi and Maharashtra.
00:32He has posted, and I quote,
00:34We defeated the Congress in Delhi and Haryana.
00:37We defeated Achilles Yadav in Uttar Pradesh.
00:39We defeated the RJD in Bihar.
00:41We defeated the Trinamool Congress in West Bengal.
00:44Today, all these defeated individuals driven by their frustration and despair seek to spread anarchy across the country.
00:52So remember, these were the parties whose party chief spoke at the Ramlila Maidan rally.
00:58And now the BJP chief has countered, saying that all these are the leaders whom the BJP has defeated in
01:04their respective states,
01:06be it West Bengal, be it Bihar, be it Uttar Pradesh, be it Haryana or Delhi.
01:11And these individuals, these defeated individuals, driven by their frustration and despair,
01:17are now seeking to spread anarchy across the country.
01:19This is what the BJP is now saying, countering these mega protests and the mega rally by the India bloc.
01:27My colleague Piyush Mishra is now joining us with more details on this.
01:31Piyush, now that the attacks by the opposition are over, the rally, the mega rally is over.
01:37And we are now expecting the rebuttal from the BJP.
01:41Meanwhile, the chief, the party chief has already countered the attacks,
01:45saying that these are the defeated individuals, the defeated leaders who were addressing the India bloc rally today.
01:51He has also mentioned every state in which the BJP has, in fact, defeated these parties
01:56who were addressing the protesters at Ramlila Maidan today.
02:27So one thing is clear that BJP will mount its attack.
02:30on Rahul Gandhi very shortly at 5 p.m., official message from BJP has come where
02:35Samit Pada will be doing such concerts.
02:37But throughout the day, we have also seen how BJP's National President,
02:41Nathir Nabi, not only addressed a rally in Rotak,
02:44but also took out Fadi Yatra with the name of Gelugtantra Bachao, Arafshan Hattao.
02:50And while addressing people there in Rotak of Haryana,
02:53BJP's President has adverted that we have defeated these politicians in various states.
02:59And now they are taking out their frustration by spreading anarchy in national capital.
03:05So BJP is of the view that it's very important to tell to the people of countries
03:10about the real facts of SIR and also bust the kind of claims those are being made
03:15by the opposition through various rallies and padhyatras.
03:19And that's what BJP is doing.
03:20And yet from now, you will also see a big press conference by Samit Pada,
03:24where he is going to rebut Rahul Gandhi point by point.
03:28Right. Piyush, there were also counter-protest marches which were organized by the BJP today
03:32in Delhi or in Rotak as you were talking about.
03:36How much of an impact did it have on the opposition's mega Ramlila Maidan rally?
03:42Well, yes, like you mentioned that, yes, there were a series of protests.
03:45Those were carried out by the BJP, not only in Rotak, but also in the national capital.
03:50Opposition is of the view that they will continue to excrete the demand of resignation of Janish Kumar
03:57irrespective of the fact BJP protests are going to them.
04:01But BJP has made a strategy.
04:02Today is number one and BJP claims that in 1994,
04:06mehem was created in Delhi in various parts of Punjab
04:11and the Sikh riots happened with the sponsored programs of the Congress Party.
04:16And instead of standing by with the victims of 1994 and the Sikh riots,
04:21Congress Party and other opposition political parties are spreading anarchy.
04:25They are doing protests in Delhi.
04:27They should have been with the victims.
04:29And that's why BJP leaders, including Harvi, Puri, Krishna, Rekha Gupta,
04:33various other MPs, all of them have protested.
04:37They took out a march in western Delhi or western part of Delhi.
04:42And not only in Delhi, but also in Rotak.
04:44They took out a rally where BJP's national president, Nitin Nabeen,
04:48took out a party at Raqi, along with various other leaders of BJP of Haryana
04:53were the part of this entire rally.
04:55So, BJP will continue to mount its attack over the kind of claims
05:00that are being made by opposition.
05:02All right, Piyush, thank you for those details.
05:05So, not just the opposition, but the BJP was also out on the streets today.
05:10There was a mega rally that was organized by the India Bloc at the Ramlila Medan.
05:15On the other hand, the BJP was also protesting against the Congress Party
05:19over the anti-Sikh riots of 1984, as well as they were also claiming
05:24that how the opposition is trying to create anarchy in India.
05:27And that is also something on which the BJP was taking out this padhyatra
05:32in the national capital, along with Rotak today.
