India will see turbulent, violent upheavals if BJP returns to power in 2024, says Janashakti

Terming progressive reform movements, right from the Vachanakaras led by Basaveshwara in the 12th century to B.R. Ambedkar’s self-respect and equality in the 20th century, as India’s revolutionary tradition, State president of Karnataka Janashakti Noor Sridhar said that India entered into a counter-revolutionary stage with the BJP assuming power in 2014.

Addressing a media conference here on Tuesday, he said that what was done by the revolutionary tradition in 800 years to achieve equality and self-respect is being undone under what he called the “fascist rule” of the BJP.

“The transfer of power in 1947 was a partial revolution and, though aspirations of the people have not been completely fulfilled, the focus on welfare state continued till India saw a paradigm shift in its economic policies in the early 1990s with the introduction of liberalisation, globalisation and privatisation ”Noor Sridhar,State president of Karnataka Janashakti
