Unprecedented assault on India in four years of Modi goverment: Sitaram Yechury

New Delhi, May 26 (IBNS): CPI-M General Secretary Sitaram Yechury has launched an unsparing attack on the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) as it completed its four years in office on Saturday.

Hitting out at the BJP-led central government, Yechury tweeted, "Four Years of BJP Central Government: These four years have seen an unprecedented assault on India as a country and the livelihood of our people. There has been a four-pronged attack that continues to intensify by the day during these four years."

Yechury has also referred to four-pronged attack by the central government in the last four years.

The four pronged attacks are the aggressive pursuit of neo-liberal economic reforms, sharpening communal polarisation, an all-round attack on parliamentary democracy and constitutional authorities and institutions and surrendering foreign policy of the country.

In 2014, the BJP had stormed into power by winning 282 Lok Sabha seats to form a full-majority government at the Centre after 30 years.

The BJP had ended a 10-year rule of the United Progressive Alliance (UPA)- led by the Congress- at the Centre in 2014.

Though the BJP had lost a few Lok Sabha seats in the recent by-polls, the saffron outfit is still the most dominant political party in the country.

However, Narendra Modi and the BJP are likely to face a united Opposition in the next General Elections, scheduled to be held in 2019.

Several disparate opposition forces are teaming up with an aim to defeat the BJP in the next Lok Sabha polls.
