Charging the Congress with creating instability by supporting and bringing down governments, Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee on Sunday said that no opposition combination of parties even in the name of secularism would succeed, as people would judge the ruling National Democratic Alliance by its achievements.
"The results of the recent assembly elections in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh have shown that voters want a change and that too in the right direction," he told a rally in Lucknow.
On his first visit to his constituency here since the dissolution of the Lok Sabha on February 6, the prime minister said the outcome of the assembly elections had given a boost to BJP.
Vajpayee said NDA had followed policies in the last five years to ensure that the country emerged stronger and people got social justice.
Vajpayee said the Congress in the past had created political turmoil by extending support to Governments and then pulling them down.
"We have not done such a thing. There have to be certain norms in politics," he said.
The prime minister said certain parties, which were there with NDA, had left.
"We told them that they were independent entities and that they were free to move out. We will meet them in the electoral battlefield," he said.
He asked BJP cadres to gear up for polls, as the election schedule would be announced soon.
Uttar Pradesh BJP leader Kalyan Singh was present at the rally.
