Mangaluru: BJP is not into politics to gain power, but for the empowerment of the nation,Union Home minister Rajnath Singh said here Saturday. The opposition Congress, on the other hand, was pursuing politics only to regain power at the Centre by forging a coalition of variousparties, he said, addressing an intellectualsmeeting organised by the BJP's district unit. "Their (Congress) efforts are not going to yield any result andNarendra Modi will become Prime Minister again," he said. The union minister said the BJP's policy was justice for all and appeasement of none and added that the nation needs a strong government, not anunstable coalition.
