He said the country can never be developed by appeasement and vote bank politics. "The BJP wants to uplift all sections of the society".
Joshi said no section should be deprived of basic facilities.

He said the abrogation of Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir could not have been done earlier, the decision of One Nation, One Tax could not have been taken at the time of former PM Indira Gandhi. "At that time political people felt that the party is above the country otherwise its will lose its vote bank," the state BJP chief said.

Joshi said that in the Vijay Sankalp team of the newly appointed state executive, experienced, energetic people have been given the responsibility from all sections, who will work unitedly in the upcoming 2023-24 elections.
He said Mahila Morcha will protest on the streets of Jaipur against the "corrupt, ineffective, jungle raj, paper leak and deceitful Congress government". On July 12, in Jhunjhunu, a protest will be held against the government which has made a "false promise" of loan waiver, the BJP leader said.
