He said that development will not remain our issue as ongoing Lok Sabha elections are not being fought for development but being contested on some else issue.

He said development won’t remain on their prime focus as ongoing Lok Sabha elections are not being fought for development. “This time elections are not being fought for development. It is for some other cause,” he said. (K
