INDIA alliance doesn't have a leader, policy, intent. Everyone including JL Nehru, Indira Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, Manmohan Singh talked about eradicating poverty but they could not.

Kalyan Singh, whose entire life went in the service of the state and Ayodhya, on his death not even a word of condolences came from the Samajwadi Party. But, you must have seen the people of SP in crocodile tears at the death of꧅ a 'mafia' and𓃲 there they read 'fatiah'."

This has happened for the first time in the history of India, that the Election Commission has put a ban on the election song of a political party. The same Election Commission ignores the violation of the MCC done everyday by the BJP... The EC says that our campaign song puts the Directors of CBI and ED in a bad light... The ECI does not object when the ED, CBI, and other cases on political leaders are shut as so🐎on as they join the BJP, but when we mention that in our campaign song, the ECI objects to it... ECI says that if you talk about dictatorship, this is a criticism of the ruling party. This means that ECI also believes that the BJP is a dictatorship government..."
