Nation First core of BJP's philosophy : Devender Singh Rana

Sunderbani, Feb 4: Senior BJP leader Devender Singh Rana today said the mantra of “Nation First” has been the core and guiding philosophy of BJP.

He said the philosophy is making BJP a party with difference, devoted to upholding unity, sovereignty and integrity of the country that is Bharat, the emerging Vishwaguru under the dynamic leadership of Yashasvi Prime Minister Narendra Modi. According to a press release, he was addressing the Shakti Vandan Workshop in Sunderbani.

“BJP under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi has set a nationalistic political discourse with civilizational renaissance getting new wings, ending the despondency of centuries due to persecution, followed by the politics of appeasement proactively carried out by the Congress post-independence ,” Rana said. He added that the era of suppression did more harm than the subjugation of over 800 years.

He said the Congress bonhomie with British colonial rulers actually resulted in the partition of the Nation in 1947 on the East-West side and now the Congress is pursuing the Nehruvian blunders to the next sinister level, furthering this divide on the North- South side.

While recalling the Congress onslaught on the Indian psyche during the past seven and half decades, BJP leader said as if the follies and erroneous political moves of Jawaharlal Nehru were not enough that now the Congress with its rhetoric associated with this divisive, anti-national Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra by Rahul Gandhi, which is in fact Bharat Todo and Desh ke Vibhajan Karao Yatra is creating divide within the country.

Rana said, “Nation's sovereignty and integrity are paramount and should never be compromised. The commitment to safeguarding the unity of the Nation is unwavering, even if sacrifices need to be made”.

BJP leader stated that the PM’s vision of Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas Sabka Vishwas Sabka Prayas has galvanised the compatriots and motivated all to ensure Viksit Bharat by 2047”. He said that the Prime Minister’s commitment to inclusive growth is reflected in initiatives like "Make in India,", “Start-up”, "Swachh Bharat Abhiyan," and "Ayushman Bharat," which aim to uplift every section of society, bridging the gaps that have persisted for six decades since the independence. “For the past nine years, however, the thrust and motivation has been to ensure economic development that reaches every corner of the country’s diverse society without appeasement or discrimination,” he said.
