Leaders of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led NDA alliance have been in touch with the opposition Congress, party leader Rahul Gandhi has claimed.
He claimed this in an interview given to Britain's influential daily The Financial Times on Tuesday (June 18).
Even a small disturbance can destabilize the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), the Congress leader said. The coalition formed the government depending on the regional parties.
Claiming that there is "massive discontent" in the Narendra Modi-led government camp, Rahul Gandhi said Prime Minister Narendra Modi will have to "fight" to keep the government alive. In the interview, Rahul Gandhi said that many people in the NDA camp are in touch with the Congress. As a result, the fall of Modi government can happen only if there is a little bit here and there.
Rahul Gandhi said that the result of the last Lok Sabha elections has changed the political dynamics of the country. In the Indian political system, opportunities have emerged for all. There have been significant pot changes. The numbers on which the government is standing are very fragile. As a result, the government will fall if only a little here and there.
On June 4, the final results of India's 543 Lok Sabha elections were announced. In this, Narendra Modi's political party Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) did not get a single majority. A majority of 272 seats is required to form the government in the country, but the BJP won 240 seats on its own.
Later BJP had to depend on 53 seats of NDA alliance partners to form the government. The BJP-led NDA alliance won 293 seats. In the election, the Congress-led coalition India won 233 seats. Out of this, Congress alone got 99 seats.
