Harsimrat Badal Remembers "Vajpayee Ji" As Akali Dal Quits NDA | Read

Shiromani Akali Dal leader Harsimrat Kaur Badal last night attacked the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) after her party quit the alliance over the controversial farm bills, which cleared the parliament last week. In a tweet, she said the NDA was no longer the alliance "envisioned" by former prime minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee. "If pain & protests of 3 cr punjabis fail to melt the rigid stance of GoI (Government Of India), it's no longer the #NDA envisioned by Vajpayee ji & Badal sahab. An alliance that turns a deaf ear to its oldest ally & a blind eye to pleas of those who feed the nation is no longer in the interest of Pb, (sic)," her tweet read.
