This is a political and moral defeat of Prime Minister, Sh Narendra Modi,” the statement said.
“This is a mandate in defense of the Constitution of India and against price rise, unemployment and crony capitalism of the Modi Government.
The India bloc will continue to fight against the fascist rule of the BJP led by Sh. Modi. We will take appropriate steps at the appropriate time to realise the people’s desire not to be ruled by the BJP’s government,” it added.
