"Look, who's is talking!": Congress hits back at PM Modi over his ‘ghamandiya alliance’ remark
Sep 14, 2023
New Delhi [India], September 14 : After Prime Minister Narendra Modi slammed the INDIA bloc asserting that the "ghamandia" alliance had sinister intentions to undermine and dismantle the foundations of Sanatana Dharma, Congress has hit back saying the PM has been using every government function to abuse the Opposition.
In his post on X, Congress MP Jairam Ramesh on Thursday said that the PM did what he does at his best.
“The PM is back to doing what he does best—insult. He repeated his abuse of INDIA parties as so-called Ghamandia parties,” the Congress MP said.
He further said that the PM used the government’s event for doing politics.
“Look, who’s talking! The man who uses the occasion of a govt function to abuse the Opposition. Stooping to his level, one could easily say he heads the GA-NDA coalition—Gautam Adani’s NDA,” he added.
Unleashing a no-holds-barred attack on the Oppositon bloc — Indian National Developmental, Inclusive Alliance (INDIA), Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday called it an “INDI alliance” that "does not have a leader".
Addressing a gathering at Bina in poll-bound Madhya Pradesh, PM Modi accused the INDIA bloc of having an agenda to end the country's ‘Santan’ culture.
“At a time when Bharat is emerging as a world leader at global forums, some parties are trying to divide the country and its people. These people came together to form an ‘INDI’ alliance. Some people are calling it a ‘ghamndiya (arrogant) alliance’. They don’t have a leader yet and there is a lot of suspense on who would lead them going into the Lok Sabha elections next year. They are working with a hidden agenda, which is to attack India's culture,” PM Modi said.
He alleged that the Opposition bloc, at its third meeting in Mumbai, adopted a resolution to “end the Santan culture” in the country.“This INDI alliance adopted a resolution to end our 'Sanatan' culture. They are bent on destroying the ideologies, cultures and traditions that have kept the country and our people together for centuries,” the PM added.
PM Modi addressed the meeting after laying the foundation for several projects worth more than Rs 50,700 crores, including the 'Petrochemical Complex' at Bina Refinery and ten new industrial projects across Madhya Pradesh.
The 10 projects for which he laid the foundation stone include a ‘Power and Renewable Energy Manufacturing Zone’ in the Narmadapuram district; two IT parks in Indore; a Mega Industrial Park in Ratlam; and six new industrial areas across the state.
