Indian National Lok Dal and BJP, both constituents of the NDA, on Tuesday, gave a call to oust the central government in the ensuing Lok Sabha election.
Mounting an attack on the Congress led UPA government, the Indian National Lok Dal and Bhartiya Janta Party, both constituents of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), on Tuesday, gave a call to oust the central government in the ensuing Lok Sabha election.
Terming the UPA regime as a 'complete failure' on all fronts, leaders of both parties categorically lambasted the government for the price hike, terrorist attacks, power crisis, unemployment, deteriorating law and order situation and adopting 'anti-people' policies at "Vijay Sankalp Rally" here. `The rally was addressed by former BJP president Venkaiah Naidu, former chief minister and INLD supremo Om Prakash Chautala, BJP state President Aatam Prakash Manchanda, INLD state president Ashok Arora and party's secretary-general Sampat Singh.
Speaking on the occasion, Venkaiah Naidu said the UPA government had completely failed not only in curbing the terrorist activities in the country, but also in giving befitting reply to perpetrators of the Mumbai strike.
He alleged terrorists had succeeded in spreading panic among the masses and carrying out terrorist activities in every part of the nation without any fear owing to weak policies of the UPA government towards tackling the terrorism.
Consequently, several terrorist attacks have so far been carried out during the tenure of the UPA government, not even a single terrorist has been nabbed so far, Naidu said and maintained that the NDA would come up with more stern laws to deal with terrorism once voted to power.
Chautala said he would give compensation at the rate of Rs one crore per acre for the land acquired if the INLD came to power in the state during the assembly election.
In an apparent bid to woo the farming community ahead of the coming Lok Sabha elections, he promised the farmers, whose land have been acquired in the name of the Special Economic Zone (SEZ) projects, that their land would be released soon after the formation of his party regime without getting a single penny of compensation back.
Manchanda also criticized the central government for not adopting a firm stance on the serious issue of tackling terrorist activities in the country. He called upon people to wipe out the UPA regime in the ensuing lok sabha election.
Om Prakash Beri, former MLA from Beri assembly constituency in Jhajjar district, on Tuesday, announced to join Indian National Lokdal (INLD) at the Vijay Sankalp Rally.
He expressed faith in the leadership of Chautala.
It may be recalled here that Beri had recently resigned from the Haryana Janhit Congress (BL) alleging that the HJC chief Kuldeep Bishnoi was not giving due respect to the party leaders and workers.
