CJP protest a flop show, democracy defeated mobocracy, says BJP

Goyal was referring to a clarification issued by Rashtrapati Bhavan sources on Friday after Rahul claimed he was surprised that President Droupadi Murmu had not challenged the Opposition’s allegations of vote theft and had sought evidence to substantiate them.

Calling Rahul’s remarks misleading, Goyal demanded an apology and also criticised Opposition leaders who accompanied him during the meeting with the President.

Patra argued that scenes from Jantar Mantar and television coverage did not reflect the larger national picture.

“India is peaceful and progressing under the government’s model of governance. There was an attempt to hold Delhi hostage through protests and provoke unrest, but the agitation turned out to be a flop show,” he said.

Claiming that the situation remained under control, Patra said democracy had prevailed and those seeking to create disorder had failed in their efforts.
