BJP will stick to Hindutva: Jaitley
Press Trust of India, Saturday July 25, 2009, Lucknow

BJP senior leader Arun Jaitley, who has been under flak for party's dismal performance in Lok Sabha polls, said on Saturday that the saffron party will continue with its 'Hindutva' agenda as 'no principled party changes ideology on the basis of electoral fortunes.'

"Though the policies and programmes come in for discussion whenever electoral results fall short of party's expectations, no political party changes its ideology on the basis of its showing in electoral battles," Jaitley said at the inaugural session of the state working committee.

The Leader of Opposition in the Rajya Sabha asked party workers to take to agitation against the Centre and BSP government in the state to emerge as an alternative to sboth of them.

Criticising the politics adopted by the SP and BSP in the state, Jaitley alleged that both were responsible for criminalisation of politics and bad governance in the state.

Mr. Jaitley is right, BJP should stick to Hindutva and continue it's work towards maintaining the age old Hindu religion, culture and traditions. But they should also give up the dream of being a national party. They should ideally gather whatever seats they can in elections and act as representatives of the Hindu people in the State assemblies/Lok Sabha.

Good that they are becoming frank and clear on their agenda. But they have not replied or given an answer to the forensic sciences report on Varun Gandhi's tape not being tampered with. They should also make their stand clear on such facts brought out.
