"Shakti of alliance is so strong that...," Mallikarjun Kharge at INDIA bloc rally

Ranchi (Jharkhand) [India], April 21 : Congress National President Mallikarjun Kharge on Sunday attacked the Bharatiya Janata Party and asserted that the 'Shakti' of the INDIA bloc is so strong that the people of BJP cannot break our 'Shakti'.
"They keep saying 500, 400 (seats). But this time, the 'Shakti' of the alliance is so strong that whether it is PM Modi or whoever, the people of BJP cannot break our Shakti. We are that strong. They are trying to scare us. But we will not get scared if Hemant Soren is sent to jail for refusing to part ways with the INDIA bloc," Kharge said while addressing the INDIA bloc rally.
He further said that the BJP would be wiped out if it continued to terrorise tribals.
"Prime Minister insulted President Murmu by not inviting her to Ram Temple Pran Pratishtha, Parliament Building opening," he asserted.
Earlier today, Aam Aadmi Party leader Sanjay Singh also attacked the Bharatiya Janata Party and said that when BJP speaks about corruption it seems like "Osama Bin Laden and Gabbar Singh are speaking about non-violence."
Addressing the INDIA bloc rally in Jharkhand, Sanjay Singh attacked Prime Minister Narendra Modi and said that PM Modi's washing powder cleans all corruption.
"Narendra Modi speaks against corruption. He put Hemant Soren, and Arvind Kejriwal in jail under false accusations. When he (PM Modi) and BJP speak on corruption, it looks as if Osama Bin Laden and Gabbar Singh are preaching non-violence. A Modi washing powder has come which cleans all your corruptions. Their slogan is 'Jo jitna bada bhrashtachari, wo utna bada padadhikari," Sanjay Singh said.
Sanjay Singh further asserted that he, Arvind Kejriwal and Hemant Soren are not scared of Prime Minister Modi.
"Two Viranganas are sitting here - Kalpana Soren and Sunita Kejriwal. When they can come out, we should also come out. The people who congregated here want to give a message to defeat PM Modi. I was in jail for 6 months, Arvind Kejriwal is in jail, and Hemant Soren is in jail. We are not scared. Adivasis threw Britishers out," he said.
INDIA bloc leaders, Delhi Chief Minister's wife Sunita Kejriwal and former Jharkhand Chief Minister Kalpana Soren attended a rally in Jharkhand's Ranchi.
The grand rally is being held amidst the Lok Sabha polls over the arrest of the ex-Jharkhand CM Hemant Soren and the AAP's Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal, two of the key faces of the INDIA bloc. Both Hemant Soren and Kejriwal are in judicial custody.
Two empty chairs, one each for jailed Delhi chief minister Kejriwal and former Jharkhand chief minister Hemant Soren, were kept on stage.
Earlier, a similar INDIA bloc rally was also held in the Ramlila Maidan in the national capital, where several opposition leaders joined hands to make a call for "saving democracy" in the country.
Elections will be held in Jharkhand in four phases: May 13, 20, 25, and June 1.
In 2019, the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) won 12 seats in Jharkhand, with the BJP winning 11. The Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) and Congress got one seat each.
Meanwhile, the Tihar Jail Administration submitted a report to the Delhi Lieutenant Governor yesterday regarding the health status of Kejriwal, who has been lodged in Tihar jail since April 1 this year.
According to the report, Kejriwal was on insulin for diabetes control. The report also called it "incorrect" to say that the Chief Minister was being denied insulin by jail authorities.
Earlier on Friday, Delhi's Rouse Avenue Court reserved an order on a plea moved by Kejriwal seeking direction from Tihar jail authorities to administer insulin and allow him to consult doctors through video conferencing daily for 15 minutes with respect to his acute diabetes and fluctuating blood sugar level.
Kejriwal was arrested on March 21 by the ED about the Delhi Excise Policy case. The trial court, on April 15, extended the judicial custody of Arvind Kejriwal until April 23. The ED alleged that the Aam Adami Party is the major beneficiary of the proceeds of crime generated in the alleged liquor scam.
