New Delhi, Sept 17: BJP today hit out at Congress president Sonia Gandhi asking her to learn "rashtra dharma" comprising feeling of national honour and security instead of
making "irresponsible statements" at party rally and lecturing on "raj dharma".
"The Congress president should realise that such statements by her only provides oxygen to terrorists and she should refrain using the issue of national security and terrorism in this manner as a convenient tool of politics," party spokesman Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi told reporters here.
He said the Congress on both issues of policy and leadership "is in a state of confusion" and the accusation of double speak by that party on BJP "applies for the Congress party itself." "Those who view the Kargil success with narrow economic angle cannot understand the Indian security concern and relate with the international opinion which has enhanced India's prestige," Naqvi said.
Quoting figures, he said it was because of NDA government's counter terrorism policies and the commitment to root out terrorism from the country that there had been success on many fronts.
He said that to understand the success of India's foreign policy, the congress needs to have nationalistic vision and understanding. "Those who have no feeling for the national security and India's honour cannot relish success of the country," Naqvi said.
