Buoyed by its student front ABVP's victory in Delhi University students union elections, BJP today claimed the win "is a reflection of the views of young India and would yield good results in Bihar assembly polls.
Citing the results, senior BJP leader and Union Minister J P Nadda attacked Aam Aadmi Party and Congress saying "it clearly shows that the country's youth has rejected the Arvind Kejriwal-led Aam Aadmi Party's negative" politics and Congress party's "anti-development" agenda.
Asked whether ABVP results would have any bearing on Bihar elections, Nadda told reporters here that the mood of country's youth reflects that Bihar polls will yield "good results".
"The results also clearly show that the country's youth have rejected false, negativism and confrontationist politics of Arvind Kejriwal. It is very clearly seen the way Kejriwal government was trying to stall the country's development by obstructing merely for the sake of it and stall development and progress of the country.
"It is a reflection of the views of the young India which has put its stamp on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's roadmap of taking the country towards progress and take India forward on the international map as an economically strong nation," Nadda said.
Asked about DUSU polls having any bearing on Bihar polls and if it would benefit BJP, Nadda said "people of Bihar want development and is keen to follow on the path of Narendra Modi government which is committed to development and there will yield good results."
Attacking Congress, Nadda said it is yet to emerge from its defeat in Lok Sabha elections last year and thus its reactions are "anti-development, full of negativism and obstructionist and its statements are full of desperation, reactionary and not well thought".
He said "Congress party is trying to mislead the country and we will apprise the people of the truth.
