BJP in Nagaland today reiterated its support for early settlement of the vexed Naga political problem which will be honourable and acceptable to all sections of the Naga people.
The resolution was adopted during its first executive meeting after formation of the new state unit, party leaders said.
Besides deliberating on important issues and the vision of the party for better functioning in the service of the people of the state, the BJP executive council affirmed its stand to support efficient and clean governance and to strive to check 'corrupt practices' prevailing in the state.
Congress has learnt no lessons from its successive poll
defeats while BJP has won everywhere after demonetisation, Prasad claimed, adding that its attack on the government showed its "affection for the corrupt and corruption".
He also targeted West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee over communal violence in Dhulagarh, alleging that "attempts of massacre" are being made and police is not taking action.
"This is height of the politics of appeasement," he said.
"I want to ask those intellectuals, who cried over 2002 riots in Gujarat and then intolerant India, that when are they going to Kolkata," he said sarcastically. BJP has claimed that Hindus have been targeted in the violence.
Prasad, who is also IT Minister, said digital payments have gone up by anywhere between 300 per cent and 1500 per cent following demonetisation which, he and Goyal said, have been a "big success".
Over 1.15 crore people against the target of 80 lakh have been trained in digital transactions, he claimed.
The Law Minister also defended promulgation of ordinances by the government, saying it was left with no option after the opposition did not allow Parliament to function in the last session.
Goyal also refuted the allegations that crores of rupees have been sent to BJP office in poll-bound Uttar Pradesh, demanding that proof be given and warning of legal action.
"We are getting indication for an historic support for BJP in UP," he said, claiming that people have supported note ban despite hardships.
"Things are fast returning to normalcy," he said.
