"Whatever is happening in our nation is not in favour of anyone. They sing slogan of uniting the country, but, on the contrary, they divide the country. So their slogan is just to show off and in actual they believe in dividing the nation. The people of the nation should wake up. If this continues, then it will become difficult to stand together at a time of difficulty," he added.
The 'Sanjhi Virasat Bachao' programme is being attended by the leaders of the Opposition parties, intellectuals, farmers, Dalits and tribals from across the country.(ANI)
