"No words are enough to condemn the manner in which BJP has repeatedly undermined the popular mandate in Maharashtra. Not only is democracy being butchered but they are using the national anthem to provide cover for such disgraceful actions.On one hand, BJP is arresting political opponents on trumped-up corruption charges while they themselves are on an MLA purchasing spree.
