Why did you increase the slogan?
For the previous ten years the federal government has been peddling violence in opposition to essentially the most oppressed of individuals. I requested them to cease this type of politics.

Successful and dropping in elections is one factor, however pitting individuals in opposition to individuals will not be good governance. It exhibits the federal government’s authoritarian tendency.

After we are taking the oath by the Structure, what else will we imply? We imply we’ll stand by essentially the most downtrodden of individuals. Therefore the slogan was apt on the time.
