'If we commit the same mistakes, there is no...': Nitin Gadkari cautions BJP

Panaji/IBNS: After a partial setback in the Lok Sabha polls, Union Minister and BJP veteran Nitin Gadkari has cautioned his party over repeating the same mistakes which its arch-rival Congress did.

Gadkari said as quoted by NDTV, "If we continue doing what the Congress used to do, there is no use of their exit and our entry."

"Advani ji used to say that we are a party with a difference. We have to understand how different we are from the other parties," he added.

The former BJP president said as quoted by the media, "If we commit the same mistakes, there is no use in their exit and our entry."

"That is why, in the days to come, party cadres should know that politics is an instrument for bringing social and economic reforms."

Gadkari made the comment while addressing a meeting of the party's Goa unit in presence of state unit chief Sadanand Tanavade and Chief Minister Pramod Sawant.

His comments came more than a month after the BJP got its tally in the Lok Sabha polls down from 303 to 240, failing to get the majority (272).

With 240 seats, the BJP, which is spearheaded by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, needs the mandatory support of its allies to run the government.
