Accusing the Congress of trying to politicise issues related to national security, Union minister Nitin Gadkari has asserted it is "not a debatable political subject" and that politics of the 21st is driven by progress and development.
In an interview to PTI here ahead of the Lok Sabha polls, the senior BJP leader expressed confidence that his party would get a "reasonably good majority" and Narendra Modi would again be the prime minister.
Replying to a question, he said, "In elections there are many important subjects related to the economic situation, some with national security. It is time for people to discuss these subjects."
