People of Delhi wanted to defeat BJP at all costs: Shukla

Senior Congress leader Rajeev
Queried about Union Home Minister Amit Shah's statement that some hardline remarks of BJP leaders may have affected the party in the polls, Shukla said. "People will believe in Shah's statement only when BJP takes disciplinary action against such leaders who made hate speeches."
Asked about External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar's statement that a book had claimed Jawaharlal Nehru did not want Sardar Patel in his cabinet, Shukla said, "We did not expect such a statement from Jaishankar. Historical documents contradict his statement. So it would be appropriate that he apologise for this statement about Nehru."
