In yet another attack on Bharatiya Janata Party(BJP), Rajya Sabha MP and Congress party treasurer Ahmed Patel on Monday said that there is 'undeclared emergency' like situation in the country.
Speaking in an event at the party headquarter, Patel said that there is a political and financial emergency like situation in the country.
'If we say that there is undeclared emergency in the country under BJP regime then it won't be wrong,' he said.
Earlier addressing the extended executive committee meet of the party here in connection with the preparations for next Lok Sabha election, Mr Patel had appealed to the party cadres to make the Congress party strong at grass-root level to counter BJP effectively.
'The situation in 2014 was different and it is quite different in 2019. The BJP with its misrule had ruined the country and pushed it 25 year back,' he said.
The senior Congress leader said that in Gujarat the party needs to make its stronghold in urban areas. 'We had won 62 of the 102 rural assembly seats in 2017 election in the state but our performance in the urban areas was not up to the mark," he added.
