PM Modi addressed BJP’s rally in Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh today
New Delhi:
Amid massive controversy over his remarks in Rajasthan’s Banswara, Prime Minister Narendra Modi today doubled down on the Congress over its wealth redistribution charge, alleging that the opposition party has an eye on citizens’ property and wants to loot it. Is.
Addressing a rally in Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh, he said members of the Indian opposition faction have lost all hope for the future. He said, “They question why Modi talks about developed India, why he talks about making India the third largest economy in the world. These people do nothing except greed for their family and power. They Cheat people.”
The Prime Minister said that he wants to warn the country about the Congress manifesto. He said, “Congress and Indi alliance are now eyeing your income, your property.” Indirectly referring to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, he said, “The crown prince of Congress has said that if his government is formed then They will investigate who earns how much, how much property they own and how many houses they own. He also says the government will take control’ of its property and distribute it among everyone, that’s what his manifesto says.”
The Congress manifesto, which the Prime Minister referred to, calls for a nationwide socio-economic and caste census to provide a data base for affirmative action.
“The Congress has been the most vocal and active champion of the progress of the backward and oppressed classes and castes over the last seven decades,” the manifesto said under the social justice section. However, caste discrimination is still a reality.” SC, ST and OBC communities have still not caught up with the rest and are still lagging behind. While OBCs, SCs and STs constitute about 70 percent of India’s population, ranking high They are represented in the professions, services and occupations. is disproportionately low. No progressive modern society should tolerate such inequality or discrimination on the basis of descent and consequent denial of equal opportunity.”
The manifesto states that if elected, Congress will conduct a countrywide socio-economic and caste census. “Congress will conduct a nationwide socio-economic and caste census to enumerate castes and sub-castes and their socio-economic conditions. Based on the data, we will strengthen the affirmative action agenda.” The manifesto said nothing about a plan for the redistribution of private property.
In Aligarh, the Prime Minister repeated his ‘Mangalsutra’ comment and alleged that Congress was planning to change the law and snatch jewelery from women. “They also want to survey how much salaried individuals have invested in fixed deposits, how many vehicles they own, how much land they own. They will do this survey and seize your assets,” he said.
The Prime Minister alleged that if someone has an ancestral house in the village and buys a flat in the city, the Congress will snatch one of the houses. He said, “Congress will say that you already have one house and you do not need another. This is Maoist mentality, communist mentality, they have ruined many countries. Congress and INDI alliance will implement it in India. Want.”
The Prime Minister’s remarks in Aligarh come a day after his remarks in Rajasthan’s Banswara created a massive controversy. Alleging that the Congress was planning to conduct a survey and redistribute private property, the Prime Minister claimed that when the Congress was in power under the leadership of Dr Manmohan Singh, it had said that the country would have the first right on property. Belongs to Muslims. “This means that they will collect this wealth and distribute it among those who have more children, among the infiltrators. Will your hard-earned money be given to the infiltrators? Do you accept this?” The comments, particularly in reference to Muslims, drew sharp criticism from the opposition.
A Congress delegation met the Election Commission of India this afternoon and demanded strict action over the Prime Minister’s speech. Party leader Abhishek Singhvi told the media that the Prime Minister has compared a community to “infiltrators” and has brought up a Hindu image in the context of ‘Mangalsutra’. “The Prime Minister has clearly violated the Model Code of Conduct and targeted the Constitution,” he said, adding that it is a question of the credibility of the Election Commission. “The Election Commission is on trial,” he said.
Earlier, Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge had said in a post on Twitter that the Prime Minister’s comments in Rajasthan amounted to hate speech and were aimed at diverting public attention. He said, “140 crore people of the country will not be misled by lies. Our manifesto talks about equality and justice for all.”
