New Delhi (TIP)- In his sharpest attack on the INDIA bloc, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said the bloc leaders “will struggle to save their deposits in the upcoming General Election” even as he accused them of dividing people on caste lines. In a no-holds-barred criticism of the Opposition, the PM singled out the Congress and said, “The members of Congress royal family are calling the youth of Banaras ‘nashedi’ (drunken/intoxicated). Those who are themselves not in ‘hosh’ (senses) are calling our youngsters ‘nashedi’. What kind of language is this?” the PM said, addressing constituents of his Lok Sabha segment Varanasi. The PM said INDIA leaders were busy dividing the society on caste lines and predicted their defeat in the 18th General Election.
“These days, there is one more reason behind the anxiety and anger of INDI leaders. They are unable to stomach the new look of Kashi and Ayodhya. Look at how they attack Ram Mandir in their speeches, the kind of utterances they use to undermine the Ram Mandir. I did not know that the Congress hated Lord Ram so much,” PM Modi said. He slammed dynastic parties and said such parties “cannot look beyond their families and vote banks”. “That is why they ally before every election and when the result is ‘neel battey sannata’ (zero divided by zero equals nothing), then they abuse one another and part ways. But they do not know this is Banaras. Everyone is a guru here. Here the machinations of the INDI alliance will not work,” PM Modi said. He said the entire Uttar Pradesh should know that the INDI alliance was the “same old stuff in a new package”. “This time they will have to struggle hard to even save their deposits,” the PM said.
Earlier in his speech, he termed the recent remarks made by Rahul Gandhi as “shocking”.
“You will be shocked to learn what did the royal family of the Congress say? They are saying UP youth are ‘nashedi’. What kind of language is this? They have spent two decades abusing Modi but now they have started venting frustration on people of UP,” the PM said, adding family-based parties of the Opposition should know that the youth of UP were working hard to build a developed state and golden futures.
Rahul, during his Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra in Varanasi, had said, “The youth here are inebriated, lying on the streets, dancing at night. The future of the youth of UP is intoxicated.”
On a visit to his parliamentary seat, the PM addressed an event to commemorate the 647th birth anniversary of Sant Ravidas and also unveiled his statute, engaged the winners of the ‘Sansad Sanskrit Pratiyogita’ at BHU, and inaugurated projects worth over Rs 13,000 crore.
