No division in NDA over FDI in retail: BJP

September 26, 2012 19:43

Seeking to dismiss reports of differences in NDA over FDI in multi-brand retail, BJP today said it was opposed to the decision in toto and indicated that it will scrap the policy if it comes to power.

Amid reports that Shiromani Akali Dal President and Punjab Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Badal, who is a key NDA ally, has softened his stand on FDI in multi-brand retail, BJP said it is opposed to the proposal completely as it is against the interest of the farming community.

BJP clarified that it is not a question of the quantum of FDI to be allowed and the party is fully against it.
