BJP’s charge against Congress in Nagaland

Special Correspondent

NEW DELHI: The Bharatiya Janata Party has charged the Congress with playing the toppling game in Nagaland just months before the Assembly polls.

In a statement here on Thursday, party spokesperson Rajiv Pratap Rudy accused the Congress of masterminding defections and desertions from the ruling coalition, of which the BJP is a part.

He charged the Congress with trying to do this just a couple of months before elections were due as it had a “sinister design” to misuse the government machinery.

The Congress had “defied the floor test” and the “proven majority” of the State government.

If the design was to somehow create instability and impose President’s Rule, the BJP would strongly oppose it and would use all avenues open to it under the Constitution to prevent it, Mr. Rudy said.
