The BJP in its manifesto made 'nation first' its priority. The 45 page vision document began with a detailed plan on national security. Contrast this to the congress manifesto that focused on jobs. The BJP reiterated its stand on giving a free hand to forces in order to combat terrorism. On the other hand, congress had promised a review of the armed forces special powers act that the BJP alleged would dilute the powers of the armed forces in disturbed areas. The BJP promised to choke infiltration and complete the citizenship amendment bill as well.
