JP Nadda, national president of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) said, that 38 BJP allies in the government have confirmed attending the NDA meeting on Tuesday.
“Our 38 partners have confirmed attending the NDA meeting to be held tomorrow,” JP Nadda. Highlighting the governance under the BJP-led NDA government, he said that in the last nine years, “the graph and scope have increased”.
He further said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has shown immense leadership over the past nine years, which has been praised by many.
“The work of Good governance has been done in the last 9 years by the NDA government and we are continuously working on it. Rs 28 lakh cr have directly transferred to the beneficiaries (DBT) till date,” Nadda stated.
Targeting the Opposition, Nadda said: “National Democratic Alliance is an ideal alliance meant to serve and strengthen the country…UPA neither has a leader nor does it have the power to take decisions. It is an alliance based on selfish interests and is only for photo opportunities.”

The meeting of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) is being organised to mark the completion of 9 years of the central government under Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the national capital on Tuesday.
