Karwar: Union Minister Ananth Kumar Hegade has said that the BJP does not believe in playing politics over the nation’s defence forces.
Speaking to reporters after addressing a campaign at Kinnara village in Karwar taluk, Hegade said that nobody should dare to bog down the morale of the defence forces.
“We are not playing politics in the name of the nation’s security forces. The PM has given free hand to the defence forces when it come to national security and defence. It is only because of this stand that the PM took, today stern actions are being initiated against terror elements,” he said.
Taking a jibe at AICC Chief Rahul Gandhi, Hegade said that Rahul has no idea about the Rafale at all. “He things it is a tri-cycle. I do not need to speak more about his level of intelligence and understanding,” he said.
Earlier, during the election campaign, he urged the voters to ensure that Modi comes to power again.
