Addressing a press conference at Congress Bhavan here, Ramesh said that the Prime Minister and the Union Home ministers were telling lies to the people only to cover the real face of the party (BJP).

“Telling lies is the second nature of the BJP leaders. The Congress joining hands with the people is fighting for the unity in diversity of the country which has been at stake after the BJP came to power,” the Congress leader stated. “It is the BJP that plays the divide and rule policy so as to achieve its goal of one nation one religion one language”, he further said,

He alleged that Amit Shah is coming to the state to spread BJP’s “drama baji and natak baji” in the state after the Prime Minister’s visit reduced to a flop visit after it failed to attract people of the state.
