Just a week after Congress released their Manifesto, PM Narendra Modi has released BJP’s manifesto or Sankalp Patra. BJP’s chief Amit Shah claimed that India is a “maha-shakti” now. He said that between 2004 and 2014, when UPA was in power, India had “slipped in the eyes of the world” but now it is among the top six economies.
