BJP MP Giriraj Singh said that the alliance between Samajwadi Party and Congress was formed out of fear of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
BJP MP Giriraj Singh, a member of parliament from Uttar Pradesh, stated that the recent alliance between the Samajwadi Party (SP) and the Indian National Congress (INC) was a reaction to the political dominance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
In an interview with a national news outlet, Singh said that both SP and Congress felt threatened by Modi’s growing influence and decided to unite to counterbalance his power.
The remarks followed the announcement of a post‑poll alliance between the two parties ahead of the upcoming state elections.
Political observers note that Singh’s comments highlight the strategic calculations parties make in a highly competitive political environment and the intra‑party dynamics within the BJP.
