But Adnan Bhai...it's BJP which made us go Nuclear and it's BJP which made Dr.Kalam saheb as our president.
Agreed BJP is no saint either. They are just less corrupt than congress.
If BJP was ruling during 26/11, all the dead souls would have been resting in peace by now and all the b@stards responsible for that dastardly act would have got the taste of their own medicine!

Let's Bust the Bubble!

The list of BJP scams includes:

- Atal bihari vajpee was responsible for Kargil as the BJP have ignored repeated warning by Sikh Army officer about pakistani infiltrations.

A Dumbass called Gujral initiated the Gujral Doctrine.

In 1997, Prime Minister I.K. Gujral shut down both the CITs aimed at Pakistan on moral grounds. Before Gujral, Prime Minister P.V. Narasimha Rao had ended RAW's eastern operations in the early 1990s, as part of his efforts to build bridges with China and Myanmar, say analysts.

RAW: India's External Intelligence Agency - Council on Foreign Relations

- BJP have taken BUS to lahore and we got back stabbed.

Congress could never approach the peaceful path with Pakistan in the Last 50 Years.

It was Mushraff who backstabbed.

Then that same Dumbass realized after supporting Terrorists, Kargil and threathening with Nukes Pakistan was only the Loser Standing out there.

Ultimately Pakistan came to our Knees.

India-Pakistan “secret pact” – was Kashmir accord just a signature away? | India Insight

BJP nearly ended the Insurgency in Kashmir during their reign. The First Free Elections held in Kashmir were under their time in 2001.

Under Congress, We nearly Lost Kashmir case in 1995 when OIC was with Pakistan and were passing a Resolution. Iran vetoed against and saved it.

- The BJP is responsible for chinese aggression as BJP have compromised on national security and recognized occupied Tibet as part of china and endorses 1 china policy.

The Nehru Bit*h had already recognized it as part of China.

"It was Nehru who made a mistake on the Tibet issue in 1953... Jawaharlal Nehru had recognised Tibet as part of China in 1953 and the successive governments are following it,"

news.outlookindia.com | Tibet was recognised as part of China by Nehru govt: Rajnath

Infact, BJP Fooled the Chinese. For Re-Recognizing Tibet, China recognized Sikkim as a part of India!

In the end there is no difference between BJP and congress both are bad but BJP is more bad for the county as they are Hippocrates loud mouth do nothing in reality.

Congress - 125 Years Old Party
BJP - 30 Years Old.

Congress - Except 1998-2004, 1975-1979 Ruled the Entire country since 1947.

You are not so Uneducated. Do the Maths.

And Still Blame the BJP and equate it with those Jackas*es!

Kargil was a scam ? lol

Bro congress single handedly made us slaves to an american multinational called MONSANTO (better rename them to monsatan)
.....they sold our food security for a dime man....they even hired mercenaries to kill their own people(arms drop case).....when this f****** american corporation pushed our farmers to commit suicide congreess defended monsanto saying "the more the pressure the more we should work to convince the nation about safety of monsanto's GM crops".If you are not aware of how serious of a threat this situation poses i recommend you to watch this :

The World According to Monsanto part 1 of 10 - YouTube

There is no diff. between terrorist kasab and a organization that hires mercenaries to kill innocent people and by colluding with monsanto congress has killed hundreds of thousands of our farmers directly.....more than any terrorist organization that ever waged a "holy" war against india.

when congress took charge BSNL was sitting on a whooping Rs 40000 crore cash....now it has less than Rs 840 crores in its bank account thanks to A raja and co....BSNL is asking for a bailout now lol....they run everything to the ground be it a telecommunication behemoth like BSNL or air india it does not matter....they will run it to the ground.

Not to mention they are directly responsible for the genocide of tamils(thank you madam )...its not pakistan or china that is a threat its the trojan horse congress that is a serious threat to our national security.

[Tshering22]

So why do people still vote for congress?

I can put 10 questions like that happening wrong around the world and still people backing it.


Now coming to the topic, you know the mentality in our country. People are still socially illiterate even if they hold MBAs and PHDs. They are still in the "blanket distribution" mentality. Just once Sonia G distributes a bunch of blankets and these voting idiots melt. Basically something called national myopia.

Congress Is A Curse On India.. Don't know when this curse is going to End..

Not until people take to forcing this government out Egypt style. Till we Indians keep sleeping, Congress will keep having ajolly time sucking our resources dry and feeding and nurturing failed economies of their tiny European masters that left them here as a future investment to their own national welfare... something we commoners have been all long ignorant about.
