PM Modi slams Rahul Gandhi as 'nafrat ka saaman' seller during Jammu rally

PTC News Desk: Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a sharp critique against Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Thursday, condemning his recent statements made during a visit to the United States. Speaking at a rally in Jammu ahead of upcoming elections, Modi accused Gandhi and the Congress party of undermining Indian faith and culture for political gain.

Modi claimed that the Congress party has a history of compromising on faith and cultural values for electoral benefits. He took particular issue with remarks Gandhi made while addressing an event in Texas, where Gandhi redefined the concept of 'Devta' (deity) as someone whose internal and external expressions align, rather than as a divine entity. Modi described this as an affront to Indian religious sentiments, labeling it as a deliberate attack on the country’s values.


"This is not just a mistake; it is part of a planned conspiracy," Modi asserted. He characterized the Congress party’s stance as reflective of a "naxal mindset," a term he used to accuse Congress of importing radical ideologies from foreign influences. Modi also accused the Congress of showing disrespect to the Dogra culture of Jammu, further intensifying the critique.

In his speech, Modi expressed concerns about the potential implications of voting for Congress, PDP (People's Democratic Party), or NC (National Conference). He alleged that such a vote would advance the agenda of these parties, which he claimed includes a desire to reinstate Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir—a move he suggested would lead to further violence and unrest in the region.

Modi further claimed that the Congress-NC alliance’s policies align with those of Pakistan. He cited support from Pakistani officials for the Congress-NC agenda, suggesting that such an alliance would serve Pakistan’s interests in Jammu and Kashmir.

The Prime Minister’s remarks underscore a broader political battle as the region heads into crucial elections, with faith, cultural values, and regional policies at the forefront of the discourse.
