Aap Ki Adalat: Senior Congress chief Sachin Pilot, who appeared in India TV’s Aap Ki Adalat present, has mentioned that the primary goal of the I.N.D.I.A bloc is ‘unity’ as bringing all events along with completely different backgrounds just isn’t a simple activity.
When India TV Chairman and Editor-in-Chief Rajat Sharma requested Sachin Pilot that there could be very little time left for the Lok Sabha elections and neither the convenor nor the PM face of the I.N.D.I.A bloc has been determined, Sachin Pilot mentioned, “It was decided at the beginning that we will not aspire for any top post.”
“Who will take up which post will be decided at the right time. The first objective is: unity. This is not easy. There are so many parties from different backgrounds. Every party has different style of thinking. Occasionally, we do fight in meetings, but imagine, to bring all parties together in a big country and take them forward smoothly is not an easy task,” Sachin Pilot mentioned.
“But all the parties felt this (unity) was essential. The I.N.D.I.A bloc was formed and I feel that if the alliance moves forward unitedly and strongly, we can give a good fight to NDA. Do not forget, old allies of NDA like Shiromani Akali Dal, Shiv Sena, JD-U have already left. If BJP now thinks it can win the election on its own strength, they will know what will happen in Lok Sabha election,” Sachin Pilot mentioned.
Sachin Pilot on Mamata Banerjee
On being requested about Mamata Banerjee’s comment that the Congress was being guided by the Left in opposition to which she fought for 34 years, Sachin Pilot mentioned, “I do not agree with her. Mamata Ji is a respected leader and she became chief minister of Bengal several times. She has a different structure in Bengal. In I.N.D.I.A bloc there is equal participation of all. We are already discussing about seat sharing in Bengal. The result will come out soon.”
