Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on June 6 night compared efforts by Opposition parties to forge unity against the BJP with that of the rainy season when "creatures like snake, mongoose, scorpion and crab, come together because of the fear of monsoon".
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader claimed Opposition parties are seeking to unite simply out of fear of the ruling saffron outfit and Prime Minister Narendra Modi's achievements during the last nine years.
“The Opposition's unity is just like the rainy season during which all creatures that reside in forests like snake, mongoose, scorpion and crab, come together because of the fear of monsoon. Likewise, the Opposition is also uniting because of the fear of BJP and Modi ji's work and therefore, their unity is getting visible,” Mr. Dhami told reporters in Gwalior when asked about anti-BJP outfits seeking a build a common platform to take on the ruling party in the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
