Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national president Nitin Nabin has launched a sharp attack against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and other opposition parties, accusing them of attempting to destabilise the country. The remarks follow the Cockroach Janta Party’s (CJP) announcement of a protest at Jantar Mantar in Delhi, scheduled for October 10. The CJP stated that the demonstration, dubbed a “final call to save democracy,” was organised to oppose the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise and to demand the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar.
Nitin Nabin alleged that opposition parties are challenging democratic mandates after facing repeated electoral defeats. He claimed that these groups are using the Constitution as a pretext to incite unrest and suggested they are operating under the influence of foreign powers. Describing the movement as having an “Urban Naxal mindset,” Nabin asserted that such factions are attempting to obstruct India’s national development. He further accused Rahul Gandhi of using insulting language toward individuals holding the country’s highest constitutional offices.
Highlighting the government's stance, the BJP chief stated that efforts to create tension would be met with a firm response. He credited Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s administration with significant achievements over the last decade, specifically noting efforts to reduce fear, combat terrorism, and eliminate Naxalism. Nabin emphasised that despite these domestic and global challenges, the government remains committed to its development agenda.
In response to the planned protest, authorities have turned the capital into a high-security zone. Reports indicate that Delhi Police have deployed 35,000 personnel, alongside measures such as the use of drones and facial recognition systems. Furthermore, metro-rail curbs have been implemented and internet services suspended to manage the security situation. Nabin concluded by stating that BJP workers would remain actively engaged with the public to counter the opposition's political objectives.
