“BJP has now stood against…”: Supriya Shrinate

Congress leader Supriya Shrinate on Wednesday took note of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s jibe at the opposition’s Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA), comparing the grouping with terrorist outfits like the Indian Mujahideen and Popular Front of India, and said that it is sad that while fighting against us (the Congress), now the BJP has stood against India. 
“…It is sad that while fighting us, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has now stood against India,” Congress leader Supriya Shrinate said. 
She further stated that “What can be expected if PM and others are equating INDIA to a terrorist outfit like the Indian Mujahideen and symbol of colonialism East India Company. PM Modi, your fight was with us but you have started fighting with India. This is shameful.”
Earlier on Tuesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi took a dig that as the Britishers named themselves the East India Company and terror organisations like the Indian Mujahideen and the Indian People’s Front, all of whom have ‘India’ in them, similarly the Opposition was presenting itself with the name of India.
Twenty-six opposition parties including Congress, which met in Bengaluru earlier this month, decided to name their alliance – INDIA (Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance).
The Monsoon Session, which began on July 20, with a long list of legislative businesses on the agenda, has seen repeated adjournments in the face of Opposition protests, sloganeering, and ruckus by members of the fledgling grand Opposition alliance over its demand for a statement from PM Modi on the Manipur situation.
