In charge of BJP affairs in the state Satya Pal Jain said the UPA alliance which had been forged to keep the BJP out of power had fallen apart as the only binding force for them was to enjoy power unlike his party which was capable of proving good governance and political stability.
Addressing a press conference here today, he said the BJP-led NDA alliance had merged stronger as its partners in the Centre as well as most other states were still with it. “The coming together of the UPA alliance partners was a perfect example of opportunism in the garb of providing a secular government,” he remarked.
He said there was no scope for polarisation of forces in the name of secularism as it was an unnatural alliance whose partners were talking in different tone in various states. Sounding an optimistic note he said the NDA would get support from the people to form the next government.
