New Delhi, Aug 10: Prime Minister Narendra Modi unleashed a vicious attack on Congress in Lok Sabha on Thursday, asserting that the nation’s citizens have no faith in the opposition party and that it has “neither policy nor intention” to make India the third-largest economy in the world.
In response to the Lok Sabha’s discussion on the no-confidence motion, Prime Minister Modi brought cited figures from a number of states where the Congress is not strong and stated that these states’ residents are saying ‘No Congress.’
“People of the country have no confidence in Congress. Due to arrogance, they are not able to see the reality. In Tamil Nadu, they won in 1962 and since 1962 the people of Tamil Nadu are saying ‘No Congress’. In West Bengal they won in 1972, people of West Bengal are also saying ‘No Congress’. In UP, Bihar, and Gujarat they won in 1985 and the people of these states are also saying ‘No Congress’…,” he said.
In reference to the BJP-led government’s goal of making India the third-largest economy in the world, if it wins the next election, the Prime Minister said the opposition has not raised any questions about how it will be accomplished and that he has to teach them even this.
“When we say that we will make our economy the third largest economy in the next 5 years, a responsible opposition would have asked questions as to how will we do it but ‘Yeh bhi mujhe hi sikhana pada raha hai’,” Prime Minister said.
“…If Congress says that everything will happen on its own, it means Congress has neither policy nor intention or vision or understanding of global economic system or India’s economic world’s strength…,” he added.
He attacked opposing parties, stating that for them, a party comes before a nation.
“Through their conduct, a few Opposition parties have proven that for them Party is above Nation. I think you don’t care about the hunger of the poor but the hunger for power is on your mind,” he said.
“Jinke khud ke bahikhaate bigade hue hain, wo humse amara hisaab liye phirte hain,” he added.
Once more, he sarcastically remarked that the opposition seems to possess a covert blessing, where their targets thrive and advance as a result of the attacks they launch.
“Vipaksh ke logon ko ek secret vardaan mila hua hai ki jiska bhi yeh log bura chahenge uska bhala hi hoga.’ One such example is standing before you. ’20 saal ho gaye kya kuch nahi hua par bhala hi hota gaya…,” he said.
