Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee President S. Supongmeren Jamir slamming the BJP Policy on ‘One Nation, One Election’ said the saffron party has a hidden agenda for the coming Lok Sabha election. After seeing the atmosphere of the Indian politics, they want to adopt and have a complete control over the voters, that’s why they are imposing ‘One Nation One Election’ said Jamir.
Jamir maintained that the stand of the Congress is to see all the voters coming independently, so that the welfare of the voters is considered first, not for the agendas of the BJP or not to harass the voters in general.
