BJP accuses Opposition leaders of conspiring to derail India’s progress

Senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader and Union Minister J.P. Nadda on Monday (September 28, 2026) accused the Opposition of harbouring a “toolkit mentality” and attempting to derail the country’s progress.

At a press briefing, Mr. Nadda said Opposition leaders, specifically Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi, Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal, Samajwadi Party’s Akhilesh Yadav, and Trinamool Congress chief Mamata Banerjee, had a “toolkit mentality”.

He accused them of attempting to defame constitutional institutions and derail India’s progress towards a Viksit Bharat. He said, “their political strategy relies on fabricating falsehoods and vitiating the national atmosphere to gain power for dynastic benefits rather than public service, national security, or dignity”.

Mr. Nadda said the BJP, on the other hand, was committed to the welfare of the poorest and the most marginalised persons in society and nation-building. Expressing confidence that the people would continue to see through the “disruptive conspiracies”, he said citizens would “decisively reject” such Opposition leaders.

The BJP leader said that when the country was fulfilling the resolve of a Viksit Bharat through the tireless efforts of 140 crore Indians and India’s achievements were being recognised across the globe, the Congress and its allies were “frustrated and disheartened”.

He said that “all the fabricated allegations made by the Opposition have repeatedly collapsed when tested against facts”.

“Lacking both policy and vision, they are now devising new conspiracies to spread confusion and disorder in the country. A few days ago, a completely fabricated story was used to create turmoil across the nation. Now, when all the members of the Election Commission have exposed each and every one of their false allegations, they have once again begun making fresh attempts to vitiate the atmosphere,” Mr. Nadda alleged.
