BJP Accuses Congress Of Spreading Negativity Over BRICS Summit

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has accused the Congress and other opposition parties of creating a negative atmosphere around the BRICS Summit, which India is hosting on September 12-13.

The BJP said that the opposition parties are unable to digest India's progress as the country moves forward. The party claimed that during the Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government in 2011-12, India's position within BRICS appeared to be weakening.

However, the BJP said that India is now hosting all BRICS heads of state and celebrating the bloc as never before. BJP MP and national spokesperson Sambit Patra said that while the 'I' in BRIC was turning shaky in 2011-12, India is now one of the strongest partners of BRICS.

Patra cited two articles published in leading newspapers in 2011 and 2012 to support his claim. He said that the Congress party and some opposition parties are trying to spread negativity and create a negative atmosphere around the BRICS Summit.

The BJP also cited a 2012 article based on comments by global financial services firm Goldman Sachs, which stated that India was the least attractive BRICS member in valuation terms.

Patra quoted Jim O'Neill, then chairman of Goldman Sachs, as saying that India was the least attractive in terms of valuation, and that China would be the most attractive.

The BJP's accusations come a day after the Congress questioned the benefits of hosting the BRICS Summit. The party's criticism has sparked a war of words between the BJP and the Congress ahead of the summit.

The BRICS Summit is a significant event for India, as it provides an opportunity for the country to strengthen its ties with other emerging economies. The summit will be attended by the heads of state of all BRICS member countries, including Brazil, Russia, China, and South Africa.

The BJP's accusations against the Congress reflect the ongoing political tensions between the two parties. The BJP has been trying to project itself as a party that is committed to India's growth and development, while the Congress has been trying to highlight the government's failures.

The BRICS Summit is expected to discuss a range of issues, including trade, investment, and security. The summit will also provide an opportunity for India to showcase its economic and cultural strengths to the world.

In conclusion, the BJP's accusations against the Congress reflect the ongoing political tensions between the two parties. The BRICS Summit is a significant event for India, and it provides an opportunity for the country to strengthen its ties with other emerging economies.

The summit is expected to have a positive impact on India's economy and its global standing. The country's hosting of the summit is a testament to its growing influence in the world, and it reflects the government's commitment to promoting India's interests on the global stage.
